The LIVE OUT LOUD Educational Scholarship was created to provide financial support for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) youth who are pursuing a college degree.  Through this scholarship, LGBT youth can apply for funds to pay for educationally related expenses to pursue a degree from an accredited college, university, or technical/vocational program. This year Live Out Loud is awarding 5 scholarships for $5,000.00 each.

Live Out Loud is no longer accepting applications for the 2014 Scholarship Program.

Scholarship Awarding Process

Scholarship awards will not be distributed until Live Out Loud receives all required documentation, including a copy of  the acceptance letter from the institution the student will be attending and verification of attendance by the relevant admissions office.  Live Out Loud will distribute awards directly to the educational institution only, and only upon verification of attendance.

Empowering LGBTQ+ youth: the role of Live Out Loud & the influence of Live Cam Boys

Speaking of representation, live cam platforms provide spaces where young LGBTQ+ people can see themselves represented, heard, seen, and validated. Let’s take one of these platforms, like for example Stripchat, one of the most popular cam sites; they feature a lot of live cam boys that live and express themselves freely. For youngsters, this is a great representation of gay men living openly and proudly. They can even see how they make some bank in the process, which allows them to be independent and wealthy.

On the other hand, seeing different expressions of sexuality on these platforms is also something positive for LGBTQ+ youth, as they can feel less isolated and more accepted. It just comes to show that you might not have support in your offline life, but you can 100% have it online.
