Since 2012,

Dignity for All has provided 1,179 rapid response financial assistance grants to human rights defenders and civil society organizations in 97 countries and territories.

The Dignity for All: LGBTQI+ Assistance Program is a consortium of six leading human rights and LGBTQI+ organizations that provides emergency assistance, advocacy funding, and security support to human rights defenders and civil society organizations under threat or attack due to their work for LGBTQI+ rights.

To qualify for emergency assistance, applicants must be under attack because of their work for LGBTQI+ people or communities. Civil society organizations do not have to be officially registered to receive assistance but must be able to document at least six months of activism. Application inquiries should be sent to info@dignitylgbti.org with detailed information describing why emergency assistance is needed. Emergency assistance applications can be submitted in English, Arabic, French, Portuguese, Russian, Kiswahili, Turkish, Farsi, and Spanish.
