ANNUAL REPORT 2007
letter from the board co-chairs and executive director
From the beginning, the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community has crossed boundaries and broken new ground. Societal expectations. Edgy
and political artwork. Models of how to care for partners, friends, and children. Each time, we’ve dared mainstream culture—and each other—to stretch beyond the
“known” and look towards what could be.
Such vision made Horizons Foundation’s very existence possible nearly three decades ago. It’s still what drives us today.
In 2007, Horizons crossed a major threshold in our work—for the first time, we gave out more than
$2 million in grants in a single year. And this wasn’t just a slight step up. Across our full grantmaking
portfolio—and thanks particularly to our rapidly growing donor-advised fund program—we distributed
over $2.8 million in grants. That’s about $1 million more than the year before.

If you look below the surface, our grantmaking had even more going on than this remarkable headline
alone might suggest. We concluded an in-depth review of all our grantmaking, looking at everything from
the types of organizations we fund to the role of community members in recommending grantees. Out of
this work came a set of priorities that will guide a sizeable portion of our grantmaking over the coming
years so that each Horizons dollar makes as big an impact as possible.
And the grantmaking review isn’t the end of the story. Horizons also undertook a thorough examination of our progress against the milestones in our strategic plan,
which we started implementing in 2004. Its goals to increase LGBT giving and build permanent resources are, by their nature, long term. That’s why, at the
midpoint of this five-year plan, we wanted to hold ourselves accountable to the LGBT community, whose resources Horizons holds in trust—especially because this
plan once again pushed the boundaries of what had been done before.
We’re excited to report that the news about our strategic plan is excellent. Whether you look at the number of Legacy Circle members, the size of the LGBT
Community Endowment Fund, or the impact of our philanthropic education programs, we’re on target to reach all the major goals. Equally important, every critical
assumption we made about our community’s readiness to take on this long-term challenge is proving true. In short, the plan is working.
Of course, all of this played out against the broad backdrop of our other programs as well—helping LGBT donors strategize about their giving, supporting LGBT
leaders in their efforts, and opening vital conversations on LGBT issues with mainstream foundations and the media.
L
Each time you peel back a layer of Horizons’ work, you’ll find another way we’re strengthening the LGBT community. Thanks to your support and dedication,
Horizons Foundation will continue to cross new thresholds and break new ground.

ANNUAL REPORT 2007
horizons programs
Horizons Foundation strengthens LGBT organizations and builds
LGBT philanthropy through a diverse range of programs, services,
and initiatives. Taken together, these activities help realize the full
potential of LGBT giving and power the LGBT movement.
We’re also proud to have such a diverse grantmaking portfolio, from an
array of significant regranting partnerships (including The California
Wellness Foundation, William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, National
AIDS Fund/Elton John AIDS Foundation, and San Francisco AIDS
Foundation) to grant programs that rely on panels of volunteers to
recommend grantees.
Strengthening LGBT Organizations
Donor-advised and other named funds housed at Horizons also reached a
new milestone in 2007, distributing more than $1.6 million in grants.
These funds are valuable to our community not just for the grants they
make to LGBT nonprofits, but also for the “lavender stamp” they put on
donations to mainstream organizations.
GRANTMAKING
Since our inception in 1980, Horizons Foundation has broken new
ground by funding cutting-edge LGBT community organizations and
causes in the Bay Area. Guided by decades of expertise and deeply
informed by direct community participation, Horizons’ grants support
LGBT organizations across the spectrum of issues, populations, and
geography. We also support LGBT nonprofits at multiple points in their
development, from emerging organizations (such as Radar Productions,
Rainbow Community Center, and Sistahs Steppin’ in Pride) to
community institutions (such as Community United Against Violence,
Native American AIDS Project, and Our Family Coalition).
L
In 2007, Horizons’ grantmaking crossed an exciting threshold: for the
first time, we made more than $2 million in grants in a single year. In
fact, our grantmaking topped $2.8 million, nearly $1 million more than
any other LGBT community foundation in the country.
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
Executive directors of LGBT nonprofits, whether small or large, bear
enormous responsibility for their organizations’ well-being. The demands
on their time and energy are nearly endless, and too often, isolation and
burnout lead them to take their talent and experience elsewhere.
Horizons Foundation’s Strategic Partnership Program (SPP) was created
to help LGBT executive directors address these challenges through peerto-peer support, executive coaching, and trainings. An evaluation of SPP
in 2007 found that 100% of the participants reported some personal
and/or professional benefit from the program, including 87% who said
they were better able to manage the stress and challenges of their job

thanks to their participation in SPP. The program has also had a
measurably positive effect on their organizations—46% of the
participants felt SPP was a factor in achieving an increased or
more stable organizational budget, and 50% reported positive
changes in staffing as a result of participating in SPP.

Building LGBT Philanthropy
By giving to causes they care about, LGBT donors have a powerful effect
on LGBT nonprofits. By bringing LGBT donors together, Horizons
Foundation focuses that impact on the LGBT movement.
DONOR EDUCATION
Our 2007 Philanthropy Series once again drew nearly 400 participants
and tremendous acclaim: 99% of the feedback rated the seminars as
excellent or good. In addition to sessions on fundamentals such as
evaluating nonprofits and planned giving, Horizons broadened the scope of
the series to include such topics as socially responsive investing, and the
role of giving in a variety of spiritual traditions. All of the sessions kept
donors connected and involved, increased the giving capacity of the LGBT
community, and enhanced the impact of individual donors.
DONOR SERVICES
In 2007, Horizons Foundation opened a record 16 new donor-advised
funds to help donors reach their philanthropic goals. In addition, our field
of interest funds continue to bring together scores of donors drawn to
particular issues, including the new Civil Marriage Collaborative Donor
Circle (see page 18). We also held a special briefing for our donor
advisors, previewing the “Let California Ring” ad that is about to appear on
television state-wide. Horizons is currently home to more than 70 donoradvised and other named funds.
We continued to work closely with professional advisors to help serve our
donors better. A series of educational events aimed at advisors helped keep
them up-to-date on topics affecting their LGBT clients, such as the
implications of new tax laws for registered domestic partners in California.
We also published our annual Directory of Professional Advisors for the
ANNUAL REPORT 2007
LGBT Community, a free booklet with over 100 attorneys, financial
advisors, tax preparers, and others who integrate the needs of
LGBT clients into their professional services.
Horizons serves as a vital resource for donors and professional
advisors as they create giving portfolios that reflect the donor’s
interests as well as the needs of the community.
PHILANTHROPIC ADVOCACY
Horizons plays a unique role as an advocate and link between the
LGBT community and the larger world of philanthropy by educating
mainstream philanthropic institutions and individuals about LGBT
needs. We also link non-LGBT foundations with LGBT organizations
and partner with larger foundations to grant funds in the LGBT
community.
In 2007, Horizons Foundation was one of the few—and sometimes
the only—organization representing the LGBT community at
strategic discussions among major national funders. As part of a
formal advisory group on “diversity funds” (a term that also
includes funders that focus on women, people of color, and other
marginalized communities), Horizons makes sure that LGBT
concerns are included in how foundations look at questions of
diversity. In the 30-member Community Foundation Leadership
Task Force—where Horizons is the only diversity fund—our
perspective and experience help enrich the group’s work in creating
new leadership models for community foundations in the 21st
century.

ANNUAL REPORT 2007
horizons foundation
2007 grantmaking
Horizons Foundation is uniquely positioned to help a wide variety of
LGBT organizations move forward in their work by providing them with
direct financial support.
In 2007, we did so through 517 grants totaling $2,869,499—the first
time we’ve crossed the $2 million mark in a single year. Congratulations
to everyone—individual donors, community organizations, and
collaborating foundations and corporations—who made this milestone
possible!
Horizons has a wide-ranging portfolio of grants that strengthen the LGBT
community. Many grantees were selected using community-led grantmaking processes, while others came from donor-advised and special
funds. Together, they represent funding for advocacy, services, and
programs that will move the entire LGBT community to the next level.
2007 Community Issues Grants
The cornerstone of Horizons’ grantmaking portfolio, Community Issues
grants are awarded to LGBT organizations and projects throughout the nine
Bay Area counties. Applicants sought funding in one of four issue areas:
Arts and Culture; Awareness and Civil Rights; Community
Building; and Human Services and Health. To ensure that these grants
reflect evolving community needs, Horizons actively engages a diverse panel
of volunteers to review proposals and recommend grants. In 2007, Horizons
awarded 39 Community Issues grants totaling $243,607.
Community Issues grants are made possible in large part by the generosity of
hundreds of Horizons donors, including those whose bequests and planned
gifts have supported Horizons Foundation’s LGBT Community Endowment
Fund. These grants are also funded in part by support from the William
and Flora Hewlett Foundation.

this program supported 42 organizations with $770,000 in grants.

critically underserved—and growing. Programs eligible for funding include
food and nutrition services, access to health care, and in-home support for
elders. In addition to receiving funding, the LGBT WISE grantees also meet
regularly to foster peer learning and create practical connections among different regions in the Bay Area. The 2007 LGBT WISE grants totaled $150,000.

Schools Coalition Grants
For several years, Horizons has worked in partnership with The California
Endowment to fund a coalition of eight organizations to create safe and
supportive school environments for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer,
and questioning (LGBTQQ) youth in Contra Costa County; 2007 marked the
final year in this multi-year partnership.
Over the course of CCSSC’s work, nearly 46,000 youth and more than 2,700
adults participated in programs aimed at increasing awareness of LGBTQQ
issues in schools among students and staff, creating inclusive school
curricula, providing direct services to LGBTQQ youth, developing youth
leadership, and empowering community coalitions. Horizons Foundation
salutes all of the CCSSC organizations for their remarkable success.

volunteered their time and expertise for our 2007 Community Issues and
HIV/AIDS Community Grants. They are entrusted with the responsibility of
recommending organizations and projects for funding, and their thoughtfulness
and sense of purpose benefit the entire LGBT community. They are an integral
part of Horizons’ longstanding tradition of community participation in the
grantmaking process.

Horizons Foundation’s donor-advised fund program helps individuals and
organizations reach their philanthropic goals while providing vital support
for community nonprofits. Horizons is currently home to more than 70
donor-advised and other named funds.
In 2007, our donor-advised fund program passed an exciting threshold.
Thanks to the generosity of our donor advisors, Horizons was able to award
$1,441,165 in grants through donor-advised funds. By supporting LGBT
donors in their giving—whether through personalized recommendations or
flexible giving vehicles—Horizons strengthens the impact and visibility of all
LGBT philanthropy. Our field of interest and scholarship funds provided
another $169,077 in grants in 2007, including $76,000 through our new Civil
Marriage Collaborative Donor Circle. This fund has given Horizons Foundation
a seat at the table with some of the leading organizations in progressive
philanthropy, making strategic grants to win marriage equality for all couples.
In total, donor-advised and other named funds at Horizons distributed
$1,610,242 in 2007—an extraordinary mark of our community’s
commitment to giving and to giving openly as LGBT people. Horizons is
proud to be part of this work.

to further their philanthropic
goals—often substantially—
while creating essential new
sources of support for our
community. Through Horizons’
LGBT Community Endowment
Fund, legacy gifts help ensure
that future generations will
have unprecedented financial
resources to address
community needs that we
cannot predict today.

Loyalty Circle
Our most loyal donors are there
year after year to support our
community. We created the
Loyalty Circle to herald those
who have contributed to
Horizons for at least six years at
any level, or whose gifts total
$100,000 or more. We consider
it our special honor to recognize
the longstanding generosity of
these loyal donors and their
example of LGBT philanthropy.
