eQualityGiving can act as a temporary philanthropy advisor for new mega donors interested in achieving legal equality for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer Americans.
These pro-bono consultations are from a donor perspective and are temporary. They are meant to assist new mega donors to understand giving to achieve LGBTQ equality and then find their own permanent advisors. eQualityGiving does not provide legal, investment, or accounting advice.
Issues that can be addressed are:
- Mentoring new mega donors
- Roles that mega donors can fulfill
- Overview of the equality movement for LGBTQ Americans
- Goals to be achieved for full equality under the law
- Strategies for giving to politicians
- Specific politicians to consider funding to elect or defeat
- Strategies for giving to advocacy organizations
- Specific organizations to consider funding
- Creative giving, angel giving, maverick giving
- Finding the proper permanent philanthropy advisor
In addition, eQualityGiving founders can help find foundation directors or trustees of your estate's charitable giving for equality.
