Queer Run is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that empowers LGBTQIA+ runners to show up authentically, connect in community, and thrive in the sport of running — from pavement, to trail, to starting lines.
We are actively raising funds through grants and community support to reduce financial barriers and help queer and trans runners with financial need participate fully in races and running programs.
Grant funding helps support:
- Race registration costs, so runners can access starting lines without financial strain
- Limited travel support, helping offset transportation or lodging expenses when distance is a barrier
- Connections to resources, including access to gear, possible coaching, and community-based training support
These supports help ensure queer and trans runners can prepare, show up, and thrive — on race day and beyond.
