PlanetRomeo Foundation

PlanetRomeo Foundation provides funding to grassroots emerging LGBTI projects and initiatives in countries and regions where LGBTI rights are most severely infringed. The Foundation funds projects which provide Shelter, as well as projects under the themes of Community Organizing and Sports & Culture. Our support focuses on achieving societal change in order to improve the position of LGBTI people throughout the world, with an emphasis on the most disadvantaged regions and communities. We also focus on mobilizing and activating the LGBTI community in these challenging contexts. By providing grants up to € 6,000 we set out to be a stepping stone and fill funding gaps between zero funding and access to larger grants. Over the last 16 years, the Foundation funded more than 419 projects in 97 different countries, adding up to a total amount of € 1,779,492 in funding. PlanetRomeo Foundation is an independent, registered non-profit established in 2009 to contribute to the fight for equal rights and opportunities for LGBTI (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex) people. With the support of ROMEO BV, the company behind PLANETROMEO, the Foundation is uniquely placed to draw strength from one of the largest online platforms.
