MAP Membership Sign-Up

MAP membership is free, but is limited to staff and board members of LGBT nonprofits and/or major donors of the movement for LGBT equality. To qualify for MAP membership, donors must have contributed $10,000 or more to a single LGBT organization or cause within the last year. MAP requires that members maintain the confidentiality of, and do not publicly or otherwise distribute, any member-only materials. MAP also reserves the right to refuse or revoke membership of any individual or organization at any time.

Individual donors should list an LGBT organization/cause to whom they contributed at least $10,000 in the last year.
