About The Mukti Fund

The Mukti Fund is a small private foundation established in 1983. For many years it funded cultural heritage and environmental projects in the eastern Caribbean country of St. Kitts and Nevis. After completing that program in 2005, the Mukti Fund began supporting Queer youth initiatives as part of a funding circle with Liberty Hill Foundation. In 2009, we started the Queer Youth Theater Fund (QYTF). A total of nearly $2 million dollars was awarded to theaters, the Pride Youth Theater Alliance, and to the annual convening of QYT directors and young people. In 2021, Mukti Fund began exploring funding opportunities in central Florida focusing on LGBTQ youth issues.
