June is Pride Month – dedicated to recognizing the LGBTQ+ community and its contributions to the world and raising awareness for the need to continue the fight for equal rights and recognition. The first Pride parades and festivals in the US which were organized in 1970 to commemorate the Stonewall Riots in June of 1969 when the LGBTQ+ community rose up in protest of a violent police raid of the Stonewall Inn in Greenwich Village. These demonstrations were one of the defining moments of the fight for LGBTQ+ rights. In support of our LGBTQ+ friends and family, we have identified these organizations to highlight in our fund. They are:

In celebration of Pride month, Prism, our LGBTQ+ ERG is raising funds to support the missions of four incredible organizations - Sylvia Rivera Law Project, The Trevor Project, The National Center for Transgender Equality & London Friend.

In recent times, LGBTQ+ expression and identities have been threatened and censored with legislation that feels like it’s moving backwards around the world. In these moments when our safety and rights are at risk, it's even more important to step into the truest version of ourselves. Now more than ever, we need safe places on and offline for the LGBTQ+ community to freely express ourselves. We’ve set up a Pride month fund in Bright Funds benefiting organizations from around the world that provide advocacy for LGBTQ+ issues. Pinterest will match your donations 3:1 for the month of June, so please consider supporting these important causes from the US, Canada, Australia, Germany and Mexico.

While there are still many obstacles the LGBTQ+ community faces, significant progress has been made over the past few decades.

Transgender Awareness Week is celebrated from November 13th through November 19th each year, and aims to increase public knowledge surrounding the common issues faced by the transgender community including discrimination and prejudice in various forms, socioeconomic and healthcare inequities, and acts of violence, among others. Additionally, Transgender Awareness Week highlights the importance of trans visibility in all spaces, showcases stories and experiences from within the transgender community, and encourages allies to stand in solidarity by showing their support and commitment to working towards justice and equality. Transgender Awareness Week precedes Transgender Day of Remembrance, observed annually on November 20th. Transgender Day of Remembrance memorializes the lives lost to targeted, anti-transgender violence and advocates for the fight for justice. In addition to supporting nonprofit organizations with a donation, you can participate by organizing or attending a vigil to honor those who have lost their lives to targeted acts of violence. Your donation to this Fund will help support the selected organizations' shared mission of providing support in all forms to the transgender community, increasing trans visibility, and advocating for justice and inclusion through direct client services, policy development, and educational programming.
