Fundraise for Point of Pride

Turn your birthday, wedding, party, livestream, or next big challenge into life-changing healthcare for trans people. It’s easier than you think—and a whole lot of fun.

Where to start

There’s a fundraiser for everyone

Quick and easy

Set it up in minutes

Create a fundraising page, share the link, and let your friends and family do the rest.

  • Donate your birthday

    Ask for donations instead of gifts with a Facebook birthday fundraiser. Try your new age as the suggested amount.

  • Honor someone you love

    Dedicate a page to a role model, friend or family member who shaped your journey.

  • Mark a milestone

    A name day, transition anniversary, graduation or new job. Celebrate by giving back.

  • Take on a challenge

    Learn an instrument, quit a habit, read 50 books. Ask for a pledge at every milestone.

  • Do something wacky

    Set a goal, then dye your hair, take a polar plunge or run in costume when you hit it. Film it!

  • Sell something you make

    Art commissions, baked goods, zines, crafts. Donate some or all of what you earn.

  • Double it at work

    Many employers match what you give or raise. See if yours does.

  • Give as you shop and sell

    Choose Point of Pride on eBay for Charity, Humble Bundle and other PayPal Giving Fund platforms.
