Meet the Gaybors Fund Recipients
Individuals, communal spaces and organizations in the gayborhood continue to do life-changing and life-saving work for and with members of the LGBTQ+ community. While national organizations continue to thrive in awareness and fundraising, we know that impactful, community-based grassroot nonprofits are the heartbeat of the LGBTQ+ community. These smaller organizations often struggle to compete for substantial working capital, grants and program contributions in turn impacting their ability to keep their doors open. The Gaybors Fund is here to help bridge the gap.
When clients book a Drag in Demand event, they have the opportunity to select a grassroots nonprofit to receive a donation from the Gaybors Fund, in partnership with Gaybors Agency and Drag Trips. This fund is supported directly from our agency commission.
Impact Fund
The OUT Georgia Impact Fund launched in 2021 with a mission to amplify and invest in nonprofit organizations that deliver meaningful, distinct, and measurable impact in the lives of Georgia’s growing LGBTQIA+ community.
Powered by United Way of Greater Atlanta in collaboration with OUT Georgia Business Alliance, Georgia’s LGBTQIA+ and Allied Chamber of Commerce, the Impact Fund is guided by an advisory council to award grants to eligible 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations that demonstrate excellence, intentionality, consistency, and effectiveness directly impacting LGBTQIA+ individuals, families, or communities across the State of Georgia.
The OUT Georgia Impact Fund aligns with United Way of Greater Atlanta’s Child Well-Being Agenda by focusing on equity to ensure all individuals, families, and communities have opportunities to thrive.

Rainbow Railroad
We help at-risk LGBTQI+ individuals get to safety around the world.
Rainbow Railroad is a global not-for-profit organization that helps at-risk LGBTQI+ people get to safety worldwide. Based in the United States and Canada, we’re an organization that helps LGBTQI+ people facing persecution based on their sexual orientation, gender identity and sex characteristics. In a time when there are more displaced people than ever, LGBTQI+ people are uniquely vulnerable due to systemic, state-enabled homophobia and transphobia. These factors either displace them in their own country or prevent them from escaping harm.
