Every dollar contributed to Tom of Finland Foundation has a purpose. Your generous donations help provide a home, meals, and studio space for our artists-in-residence. Your patronage keeps TOM House a living, breathing archive of our Queer heritage. Your steadfast support ensures that as our collections grow, we have the proper space and materials to safeguard art that otherwise would be lost or destroyed. 

For forty-one years, our devoted community has championed Tom of Finland Foundation in its work to honor and expand Tom’s legacy worldwide. If you’ve been here since then, thank you for all you’ve done and continue to do for us. If you’re just arriving, we’re so happy to have you! We need this community of artists, fans, kinksters, and forward-thinkers now more than ever before. 

Across the nonprofit sector, funding is tightening. Operational costs are rising. Philanthropic dollars are shrinking. Political pressure is mounting. For institutions rooted in LGBTQ+ culture and expression, the stakes are existential. What we preserve today determines what future generations will be allowed to learn, see, and celebrate tomorrow.

Whether your gift is $25, $100, $500, or more, know that it is being used to house and feed the next generation of renowned Queer artists.

Our priceless library collection is meticulously catalogued because of you. Your dollars keep our temperature-controlled storage facility in tip-top shape so it can continue to protect the treasure trove of fine art within its walls.

You are Tom of Finland Foundation. Your stories, your passion, and your financial support keep us flourishing. Let’s continue our growth together.
