Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer Alumni Financial Giving To and Participation With Undergraduate Alma Maters

The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship of undergraduate and alumni experiences with financial giving to and participation with undergraduate alma maters for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) alumni. We employed a quantitative design with descriptive and regression analyses generated from the LGBTQ alumni survey. Quantitative data illuminate the importance of campus climate, academic training, and institutional value for LGBTQ alumni. These undergraduate and alumni experiences were demonstrated to have high impact on both alumni financial giving and participation.
