The Astraea Lesbian Foundation for Justice is an international charitable foundation based in the United States focused on issues related to LGBT and intersex rights for people of color. The organization provide grants to individuals and organizations, promotes philanthropy, and provides capacity building assistance. Astraea Lesbian Foundation for Justice was founded in 1977 by a small group of diverse women to increase funding for lesbian and women of color causes based on lesbian feminism. Astraea Lesbian Foundation for Justice works to connect the LGBTQI community to philanthropists and activists around the world. They solicit and invite grant proposals from individuals and organizations in the United States and internationally working on LGBT advocacy – especially around areas of the arts as well as racial, economic, social, and gender justice. For example, from 1992 to 1994, Astraea helped fund Esto no tiene nombre, a magazine created (in part by tatiana de la tierra) to explore and provide a platform for discussion about Latina lesbian culture. In 2012, the organization awarded 152 grants totaling US$1,310,624 to 113 organizations and 16 individuals across 36 countries. More information...
