ACN LGBTQ+ Award for Nonprofits

Application Form

We're excited to announce a new initiative designed to support nonprofit organizations that work with or directly impact members of the LGBTQ+ community. The LGBTQ+ EMPOWERment Award: Supporting Programs for Our Community is a first-of-its-kind effort by the ACN's LGBTQ+ EMPOWER Group, in collaboration with ACN allies.

After a review of submissions from interested organizations, finalists will be invited to a virtual business pitch session where they'll present their projects to a panel of nonprofit consultants. One finalist will receive a financial award of at least $1,500, along with six months of support from ACN-member consultants. Our team of experts cover every aspect of working in the nonprofit and social impact sector, and they'll be available for an established meeting schedule. All other finalists will receive one pro bono consulting session with a volunteer consultant.
