Sabrina Carpenter is taking her LGBTQ+ allyship to the next level – beyond the first, second, third floor, you might say – as she is rallying behind the Transgender Law Center, the largest trans-led organisation in the US.
On 16 October, Transgender Law Center (TLC) confirmed that the organisation, which fights for the rights of trans and gender non-conforming people, had become a beneficiary of The Sabrina Carpenter Fund.
The fund, which was set up as a collaboration between the “House Tour” singer and non-profit PLUS1 in 2024, raises money to support a range of causes including animal welfare and mental health.
A large portion of the fund is dedicated to supporting LGBTQ+ causes, with charities Rainbow Railroad and the LGBT National Help Center having benefited from the fund.
A portion of the proceeds from each ticket sold for Carpenter’s ongoing Short n’ Sweet Tour is added to her charitable fund.
As the two-time Grammy Award winner embarks on the second North American leg of the tour, a new group of charities has been selected to benefit from the fund.
In a statement on social media, TLC thanked Carpenter for using her platform to “uplift trans joy and liberation”.

“The Sabrina Carpenter Fund will directly support TLC’s Legal Information Helpdesk, which responds to more than 2,200 requests annually and the training of more than 400 trans leaders through programs like the Disability Project, Black Trans Circles, and Positively Trans – driving the Trans Agenda for Liberation forward,” the organisation wrote.
TLC works to ensure trans people “can live freely, safely, and authentically” through “advocacy, education, and leadership development”.
At the end of Pride month back in June, it was revealed that Carpenter’s fund had raised more than $1million in less than a year, becoming Plus1’s fastest-growing artist fund to date.
At the time, Carpenter said she was “grateful” to use her platform to support those in need, and addressed her queer fans specifically.
“As Pride comes to a close, I want to send so much love to my LGBTQ+ fans,” she said.
“You’ve always shown up for me and I’m committed to showing up for you. Thank you for always uplifting me, making me laugh and showing how special it is to be authentically yourself.”
Since reaching the upper echelons of musical stardom last year, Carpenter has been a visible and vocal ally of the LGBTQ+ community.
During her performance at the MTV Video Music Awards in September this year, the “Espresso” hitmaker was surrounded by queer folk and stars of RuPaul’s Drag Race, plus a range of banners carrying slogans including “Protect Trans Rights”.
In August, she unveiled the music video for her disco-tinged single “Tears”, which featured gay actor Colman Domingo in drag, and Carpenter dancing with a group of queer outsiders.
Last year, while performing at the Governors Ball music festival in New York, Carpenter changed the lyrics of her fan favourite track “Nonsense” to mock those who don’t support Pride month.
