Thank you SFist for the wonderful news that the SF Queer Nightlife Fund Raiseed $160K, and will start delivering grantss.
With the community’s overwhelming support and generous donations, SF Queer Nightlife Fund was able to raise $160K grant to aid LGBTQ nightlife workers. This includes entertainers, DJs, bartenders, and nightclub employees. They are happy to announce that they are disbursing their first round of grants for eligible applicants.
“This marks a major milestone for the QNF! The shelter-in-place order has been extended through May, and all of our major queer holidays have now been canceled through the fall, including Pride and Folsom Street Fair.”
They are also asking for your continued support. If you continue to have a reliable source of income, please consider donating to the fund, and consider making your donation weekly. The performers, artists, bartenders, and behind-the-scenes workers who make the nightlife magic happen in the SF Bay Area need our continued support in this extraordinary time.

The SF QNF is proud to announce that we are disbursing awards from our first round of grant applications. In the month of March, we received #emergencyrelief applications from 258 #queer #nightlife workers, of which 176 met our eligibility criteria. https://t.co/5Pdnpp5XTh
