When foundation boards clash over supporting LGBTQ+ groups under government crackdowns

Our foundation's board is split on whether to continue funding LGBTQ+ groups in countries where governments are cracking down because some board members think we're putting activists at risk while others say withdrawing support abandons people when they need us most. Every meeting ends with someone questioning whether we're helping or harming.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A group with power to help is paralyzed by uncertainty about whether their assistance creates more danger than benefit.
