The organization pursues educational, lobbying, and political activities in order to further lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (lgbt) interests within utah. The organization drafts legislation and coordinates lobbying efforts to protect the rights of lgbt utahns. During 2022, we welcomed eddie izzard to keynote the 2022 allies gala. She addressed the precarious moment we face as a global community. That evening we were able to honor local heroes bruce bastian, sue robbins & the queer students of byu. We teamed up with the aclu of utah, the national center for lesbian rights and the law firm of wilson sonsini to file a lawsuit on behalf of transgender children.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $717k to $429k (−40%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
-1362% of EQUALITY UTAH’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
33% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund EQUALITY UTAH.
