Kansas universities can’t offer LGBTQ+ scholarships right now—not because the need disappeared, but because state lawmakers changed the rules.

Last year, the Kansas state budget proviso eliminated funding for DEI programs and positions at public universities. In practice, that means schools are no longer allowed to offer identity-based scholarships—including those that specifically support LGBTQ+ students.

The impact is real.

At a time when many LGBTQ+ students are:
🏳️‍🌈Being pushed out of their homes for who they are
🏳️‍⚧️Navigating harassment or hate—and the trauma that follows
🎓Balancing school while managing trauma, isolation, financial instability, and hostile learning climates.

Public institutions have been stripped of tools they once used to support them.

But while universities can’t—we can.

💜 Apply for an LGBTQ+ scholarship ($500–$700) by May 23:
https://www.fhhrp.org/scholarship

💚 Help us fill the gap left by this policy:
Donate directly: https://www.fhhrp.org/memberships
Shop our fundraising shirts: https://www.fhhrp.org/tshirt-fundraising

This is what community care looks like. This isn’t accidental—this policy removes support from LGBTQ+ students and students of color at a moment they need it most.

📢 Share this post. Tag someone who should apply. Help us reach students who need support right now.
