10 business giving back to the LGBTQ community

June kicks off the LGTBQ+ pride celebrations! For the next 30 days, get ready to be overwhelmed by every color of the rainbow, as those who are out and proud celebrate their rights to be who they were created to be. Major brands use Pride month as a way to show their support for the community. In addition to marketing items that show the various LGBTQ+ flags, they’ve also decided to donate the proceeds to a bunch of organizations that help displaced members of the community acquired shelter, education, healthcare, and much more. If you want to do some intentional spending to help out the LGBTQ+ population, then you’ll want to pay close attention to this post. I’ve complied a list of 10 brands who will donate most, if not all, of their proceeds to organizations that support the LGBTQ+ community.

How cute is this Levi’s jacket?! Pronouns have become an intricate part of how we introduce ourselves to one another. This jacket is a great way to help get the conversation started.

I love this simple yet chic crop top from Reebok. The brand has an amazing Pride collection that includes sneakers, tops, shorts, and other cut outfits.
