Bring them to the Games

A campaign to raise funds and airline miles to support the Scholarship Program applicants

Donors

The Gay Games Scholarship Program is one way that the FGG reaches out to geographic locations and demographic groups who have been under-represented at previous Gay Games. Through this program, applicants can receive financial support for travel and housing expenses, registration fees, and a daily allowance for the week of the Games.

We are determined to recognize their achievements by offering some level of financial support to every deserving applicant, but we will not be able to do so without your financial help. Please give generously.

"Whatever our score will be, I will come back [to my country] as a stronger person, ready to face new challenges in life. One of my personal challenges and mission is to empower gays and lesbians [in my country] to do something for themselves, to go out from the ghetto of fear and hiding, and to enjoy life at its full[est]." — Eastern European lesbian soccer player
