HOW WE DO IT...The Gay Games and its international Federation exist to serve the needs of athletes, artists, and activists. The mission is to promote equality for all, and in particular for LGBTQ+ people throughout the world. These athletes, artists, and activists unite every four years for an event that has literally changed the world. Participating in the Gay Games has been a life-changing experience for thousands from all walks of life. Thanks to some robust fundraising and a generous scholarship program, hundreds from highly underserved countries and communities have been brought to the Gay Games to witness “Participation, Inclusion, and Personal Best ™” first-hand and see the collective power of those values. As the world’s largest sports and cultural event open to all, the Gay Games have created and nurtured a movement that has become among the greatest forces for community empowerment and social change.

"MY GAY GAMES STORY"Since 1986, The Federation of Gay Games Scholarship Fund, through your donations, has awarded more than 1,000 scholarships to underfunded LGBTQ+ individuals from 70 countries around the world, where the daily struggle for equality is harsh and often dangerous, to experience “participation, inclusion and personal best™" first-hand and see the collective power of those values. | DOUBLE YOUR DONATIONAs we continue sharing our series of powerful personal stories this holiday season from scholarship recipients and participants who have been positively and profoundly affected by support received through the Federation Of Gay Games, we are pleased to announce that all Scholarship Program donations in December will be matched by a gift from a major benefactor. That’s TWICE the life-changing impact delivered to athletes and artists from around the world that need your help! |
