For a Change Fund (actual name: Fundusz dla Odmiany, abbreviation: FDO) – a nationwide Polish non-governmental organization working to support the LGBT+ community outside major cities, mainly in small towns and rural areas. The Fund was established in 2019 on the initiative of Aleksandra Muzinska and Malgorzata Maciejewska, LGBT+ activists formerly associated with the Love Does Not Exclude Association. The Fund has the status of a public benefit organization.

The organization's mission statement is to:

• strengthen and support individuals and groups who wish to create open communities through micro-grants and technical support,
• mobilize allies to act and support LGBT+ people,
• build a community of people, who work on grassroots and local levels to enhance LGBT+ equality outside of big urban centers

In December 2020, the Fund received the LGBT+ Diamonds Awards business award in the “Partnership of the Year” category.^[1]
