Every June, brands across industries roll out rainbow-hued collections and campaigns in recognition of Pride Month. While some efforts may be merely for show, others aim to authentically celebrate and support the LGBTQ+ community through intentional product design, storytelling, and reinvestment in queer-led organizations.
Pride Month, celebrated every June, honors the LGBTQ+ community and commemorates the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in New York City—a pivotal moment in the fight for queer liberation and civil rights. What began as a protest against police brutality and discrimination has since evolved into a month-long celebration of identity, resistance, and progress. Pride is both a joyful expression of love and selfhood and a continued call for equity, justice, and protection for LGBTQ+ people around the world.
Brands That Get Pride Month
In recent years, brands have joined the celebration by releasing Pride-themed products, partnering with queer artists, and donating a portion of proceeds to LGBTQ+ organizations. These efforts, when done with sincerity and transparency, can raise awareness, foster representation, and provide support to grassroots initiatives.
