SCHOLARSHIP / FUNDING SUPPORT PROGRAM

The Gay Games Scholarship Program (now known as the Funding Support Program) has historically supported economically disadvantaged participants from around the world to attend the Gay Games. GGHK 2023 is striving to make the 2023 Games in Hong Kong and Guadalajara even more accessible through a revamped fundraising process.

• FGG and GGHK are committed to fundraising and providing a minimum of USD 100,000 for the scholarship fund in value-in-kind gifts and cash. They will assist applicants to raise far more funds.
• Approved scholarship candidates will organize their individual crowdfunding campaigns to contribute to the scholarship fund and increase GGHK’s visibility.
• More scholarship candidates are expected to be sponsored by tapping into both organizational and individual donors.

Candidates are accepted into the Funding Support Program through an online application process. Once they are accepted, they will set up crowdfunding campaigns (anonymously or otherwise) with guidance from GGHK. We believe individual donors are best inspired by stories told by our artists and athletes. It is also the program’s mission to equip underprivileged Gay Games participants with outreach and fundraising skills that they can apply to uplifting their local communities in the future.

The  Funding Support Program’s success rests upon the generosity of our donors, who not only resonate with our values and missions, but also actively empower us to bring together more diverse and unique life paths.
