The Harrilal Foundation makes grants to Florida organizations serving LGBTQ+ individuals, veterans, seniors, and adolescents — so programs that already work can reach further.
Because dignity, care, and opportunity should belong to everyone.
Our role
Founded by Kevin Harrilal, the Foundation backs organizations already transforming lives — with grants, partnership, and advocacy that let them expand what they've proven, rather than starting something new alongside them.
Direct funding released in rounds to community organizations across Florida. Our first round put more than $10,000 into statewide mental health programs.
Twelve active partner organizations, not twelve one-time cheques. We stay in the relationship so funding can follow what the work actually needs.
Raising the profile of behavioural health and wellness work that goes underfunded everywhere else, and connecting partners to the people who can help.
How a grant travels
Released to community organizations across Florida in our first funding round.
Local groups running 15 funded initiatives in the communities they already serve.
Youth, veterans, seniors, and caregivers reached through those programs.
Impact isn't about the spotlight — it's about lighting the way for others.
