At the OutSmart Foundation, we’re dedicated to amplifying the voices of our LGBTQ community. Your support makes this possible, helping us share these important stories through philanthro-journalism. Every donation goes directly toward meaningful media efforts that drive change.

Like many in the media world, we’ve faced significant challenges in recent years. The pandemic hit us hard, and additionally, shifts in advertising revenue have impacted our ability to rely on traditional funding sources. But despite these setbacks, we remain committed to elevating LGBTQ voices and stories—and we’re ready to come back stronger.

We’re currently building a more robust newsroom, designed to expand our multimedia storytelling and increase our reach both locally and across the nation. With your support, we can ensure that OutSmart Media Company continues to highlight the critical issues affecting our community and inspire positive change.

For over 31 years, OutSmart Magazine has been a trusted voice for the LGBTQ community. The OutSmart Foundation is proud to support this legacy. As a 501(c)(3) public charity, we fund journalism that not only informs, but drives progress. Your donation enables us to uplift voices that challenge injustice, celebrate diversity, and reflect the richness of LGBTQ life.

Make a lasting impact.
