THE 2022 PROGRESS PRIDE FUND
of Mensa Foundation
“Unleashing intelligence for the benefit of humanity”
Charitable fund in support of individuals working toward unleashing intelligence for the benefit of humanity and:
- who identify as both BIPOC & LGBTQ; and
- who have a demonstrated record of positive service to the BIPOC & LGBTQ communities
Mensa membership not required.
Founded in 2022 by Nguyen Pham of San Francisco, CA, the Progress Pride Fund lifts and centers our community members who are both BIPOC (Black, Brown, Indigenous, and People of Color) and LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer or Questioning).
The inaugural Progress Pride Fund seeks to address the unique challenges of individuals who face both racism and homophobia, championing the narratives of this intersectional marginalized community.
At the request of Nguyen, whose birthday occurs during February, this fundraiser will conclude on February 28, 2022. Please consider lodging a generous, tax-deductible birthday contribution today.
Thank you for your support!
