How We Work

Point’s founders were successful individuals eager to help LGBTQ+ and ally students attain a postsecondary education, as well leadership training, mentorship, and guidance that they had benefited from in their own professional careers. Since its inception in 2001, Point has sought the partnership of philanthropic individuals, corporations, and foundations to supply financial support, professional guidance and a network of contacts for our scholars.
