Impact

Impact categories and allocation

Allied Pride plans impact through a 5 + 1 candidate organization slate: five LGBTQ+/community-focused candidate organizations connected to the planned 60% actual-profit allocation, plus AIDS United as the separate HIV-focused candidate connected to the planned 10% allocation.

Impact model

70% of actual profits planned for impact

Allied Pride plans to allocate 70% of actual profits toward impact after legitimate operating expenses. Within that planned impact allocation, 60% is directed toward LGBTQ+/community-focused impact and 10% toward separate HIV-focused impact. The remaining 30% supports platform sustainability, operations, reinvestment, reserves, growth, return, and long-term stability. Supporter revenue and actual profit are not the same thing.

Local candidates

Ohio starting point

The local portion of the core slate can change by city or state. For Ohio, Allied Pride is currently showing Kaleidoscope Youth Center and TransOhio as local LGBTQ+/community-focused candidates because they connect the model to concrete regional relevance while remaining subject to review.

  • Kaleidoscope Youth Center — Ohio local LGBTQ+ community/youth support candidate
  • TransOhio — Ohio local transgender/community support candidate

Continuity across future slates

SAGE, Point Foundation, and Lambda Legal create a repeatable national core layer for elder support, education pathways, and civil rights/legal advocacy. AIDS United remains separate as the HIV-focused candidate.

Images are contextual visual accents only. They do not identify anyone as an Allied Pride member, recipient representative, LGBTQ+, transgender, HIV-positive, or affiliated with any organization.

Proposed recipients caution

Candidate organizations are listed for planning and transparency only. No partnership, sponsorship, endorsement, authorization, logo permission, or guaranteed disbursement is implied unless later stated with written authorization. Final recipients and allocations may change after legal, accounting, compliance, authorization, and operational review.

Candidate organizations may be discussed internally, shown in planning materials, or displayed publicly for transparency, but they are not presented as partners unless explicitly authorized in writing. Recipient lists may change as programs, compliance requirements, permission needs, local priorities, and operational capacity evolve.

Published impact reports

Impact categories describe planned allocation areas. Published impact reports are the formal accountability layer for actual-profit calculations, allocation summaries, and disbursement records once accounting review and reporting infrastructure are active.
