Through feedback and community conversation, BCF has worked to develop a collaborative philanthropic model that can respond to the needs of Baltimore’s LGBTQ community. In July 2018, BCF held its first public convening featuring a panel of leaders who discussed many of the challenges facing LGBTQ youth. In late 2018, BCF established an advisory committee to guide the grantmaking direction of the fund. A first round of grants totaling $91,100 were awarded in November 2019 to seven organizations for activities supporting LGBTQ youth.
