Donations

Thank you for considering a donation to theguide.lgbt! Your support helps us continue providing vital resources and services to the LGBTQ+ community. As a primarily online non-profit, we work hard to keep our operational costs low, ensuring that every dollar you give has maximum impact.

Your donations help us cover essential expenses, including:

  • Legal fees to maintain our non-profit status.
  • Mailbox costs, which are necessary for receiving check donations and official notices from the IRS and the State of Wisconsin.
  • State of Wisconsin filing fees, required for our annual compliance.
  • Marketing materials, such as printing 988 resource cards to distribute at local clinics, veterinary offices, schools, and community centers. These cards provide free, life-saving information to those in need.

By donating, you’re not just supporting us—you’re empowering the LGBTQ+ community with accessible, reliable, and life-changing resources. Every contribution, big or small, makes a difference.

Thank you for standing with us. Together, we can make a lasting impact.

Electronic Donations

Scroll down further to make an electronic donation directly on our website through zeffy. Zeffy is a platform used by non-profits for donation gathering. We use this platform because 100% of your donation comes directly to us as opposed to paying processing fees and using part of your donation just to receive your donation. Zeffy will give you the option to leave them a tip to help non-profits like ours collect our funds, but this is entirely optional.
