Ariana Grande's BrighterDays Ahead Foundation Supports ALMA Chicago

A portion of Ariana Grande's Chicago shows will support ALMA's work expanding power with the Latinx, LGBTQ+, and gender-expansive communities. 

A Shared Commitment

Supporting community-rooted work. 

The Brighter Days Ahead Foundation, founded by Ariana Grande, uplifts and directly funds smaller, community-rooted organizations that provide protection, support, and vital resources to people facing the greatest barriers. Its work centers on protecting trans and LGBTQ+ rights, expanding access to mental-health care, advancing justice and equity, and responding with care and compassion during moments of crisis. These priorities closely align with ALMA Chicago’s mission to expand power within Latinx, LGBTQ+, and gender-expansive communities. Through advocacy, leadership development, and connections to affirming services, ALMA works to ensure that individuals and families have the resources, opportunities, and meaningful voice needed to thrive. The Foundation’s support strengthens this work while bringing greater visibility to organizations rooted in and accountable to the communities they serve.
