How CSE is Funded
CSE uses a campaign model, which involves keeping overhead costs low and maintaining a lean, nimble structure. We fund our work with
- individual and business donations;
- in-kind donations and pro bono services;
- foundation grants; and
- earned revenue from trainings, speaking fees, and merchandise sales.
We are very grateful to the individuals, faith communities, foundations, community partners, and businesses that provide funding and support to make our work possible. If you have questions about CSE’s fundraising or finances, please feel free to reach out to Executive Director, Jasmine Beach-Ferrara at jasmine@southernequality.org.
