The Global Trans Initiative is a groundbreaking, multi-year philanthropic endeavor intended to improve the lives of trans people throughout the world.
The initiative will deploy resources totaling at least $20 million over five years that will support efforts to change the cultural narrative of the trans experience; increase the capacity of trans movement leaders; and increase access to safety and economic opportunity.
By providing lead funding, the Arcus Foundation will commit $15 million toward a range of activities, including a pooled fund to be managed by Arcus along with key funding partners. The NoVo Foundation will commit $1 million to the initiative, and other partners will contribute at least $4 million.
