TurningPoint Executive Search Co-Sponsors National Pride Grant for LGBTQ+ led businesses

TurningPoint Executive Search is proud to partner with Founders First to co-sponsor the National Pride Grant, providing $1000 grants to 25 LGBTQ+ led businesses with less than $10m in revenue.  The National Pride Grant is an opportunity to bring both financial resources and access to knowledge, talent, and experience to LGBTQ+ led organizations that might not have access otherwise.

“We are very committed as a family, my wife, children, and I, to this community. For me to be able to provide some expertise and financial support to a fund like the Pride Grant is very fulfilling, and I feel very fortunate to be involved.”  ~Ken Schmitt, TurningPoint Founder & CEO
