Throughout the vibrant month of June, dedicated to celebrating and advocating for LGBTQIA+ rights, we joyously marked Pride Month in the office with an inclusive all-company happy hour. As a fitting conclusion, several of our colleagues participated in the 43rd annual Front Runners New York LGBT Pride Run. The landmark race raises funds and celebrates LGBTQIA+ pride and the ongoing movement toward DE&I. Our commitment to DE&I is also shown through our support of several local organizations that champion the LGBTQIA+ community. We have been active participants with Build Out Alliance for many years and currently are a Rainbow Sponsor, helping to build the queer community within the design and construction industry. Members of our team also support Cheer New York and participated in the organizations fundraiser for Love Wins NYC Food Pantry . We are proud to be partners in these organizations and celebrate Pride Month! Melissa Muñoz Aleksandra McNamara Ilena DeRose #BuiltEnvironment #Cerami #PrideMonth #LGBTQIA

Some thoughts I have about #PrideMonth this year and how organizations can support the LGBTQ+ members of key audiences.
At Slide Nine, we embrace diversity and inclusion not just as seasonal observances, but as pillars of our work culture. We proudly stand with the LGBTQ+ community, not just during Pride Month but every day. Through our unique philanthropy initiative, we empower our team members to make a difference by providing each with $1,000 to donate to causes of their choice that promote a safer, more equitable world. #HappyPride #Community #DEI

As Pride Month comes to a close, we reflect on the importance of inclusivity and solidarity.🌈✨ At Ringer Sciences, we stand with the LGBTQ+ community in celebrating diversity, equality, and love. This month, we dove deeper into the #CorporatePride conversation, from how the Fortune 100 marked the occasion, with 47% of companies participating, to social media discussions of brand involvement in Pride Month celebrations. From logo changes to charitable initiatives, brands showed their support in various impactful ways. Concurrently, consumer discussions highlighted the significance of brand involvement in Pride Month celebrations, focusing on the authenticity of support, the impact of donations, and community engagement. Let's continue to champion diversity and equality every day. #RingerSciences #PrideMonth #Inclusion #LGTBQ #RainbowCapitalism #F100

Happy Pride Month! We are allies. 🌈 Here are 5 ways to celebrate Pride Month: 1. Educate yourself Learn all about the history of the LGBTQIA+ community, its history, and its challenges. 2. Donate Give back to the LGBTQIA+ community by donating to an affiliated nonprofit in your area. 3. Increase LGBTQ+ inclusivity in the workplace If your workplace does not have a culture that promotes LGBTQIA+ inclusivity, speak to your manager about ways the company can be more inclusive to this community. 4. Watch a documentary on the Stonewall Riots Learn how it all began by watching an informative documentary on the Stonewall Riots and the events that preceded and followed them, like “Stonewall Forever” or “Stonewall Uprising”. 5. Be supportive If someone you know is LGBTQIA+, be supportive as they pursue their journey. #pridemonth #LGBTQIA+ #loveislove #metabolichealth #obesitymedicine #obesity #ally Courtney Younglove, M.D., FOMA, FACOG, DABOM Maribeth Orr, D.O., DABFM, DABOM Maren Ozier Here is more about Pride Month from The National Council for Mental Well Being 👇 https://lnkd.in/eNmtJ-4M

As allies, advocates, philanthropists and corporations celebrate #Pride 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ month, it’s important to lift up the intersectional nature of the #LGBTQ community. Queer people are not only Black, brown, white, AANHPI, Gen Z, old, wealthy, or under resourced. Millions of LGBTQ people also live with disabilities (both visible and invisible) — and instead of overlooking disabled people, let’s make an effort to elevate and equalize by: 1) Donating to organizations that work within the community 2) Intentionally including disabled people in your Pride marketing campaigns 3) Centering disabled queer voices in your messaging this month…and all year long. #DEI / #ESG / #Media / #ERG / #Marketing folks: If you are looking for a great grassroots organization to support and partner with, check out Arkansas Support Network (ASN). It’s an amazing non-profit in the mid-South empowering close to a thousand people in the disabled community with the ability to make decisions and direct their lives — including those who are LGBTQ 🏳️🌈. Their work is making a difference on a local, regional, and national level. If you want more info on the org, would like to become a partner, or make a Pride donation that will truly make a difference, connect with ASN CEO, Dr. Syard Evans. (Also an acclaimed speaker on disability inclusion…you’ll be glad you invited her to your corporate or policy event).

A few words from our CEO about the significance of Pride Month.
For the 20+ years we’ve been in business, The Knot Worldwide has supported the LGBTQIA+ community and advocated for marriage equality globally. Pride Month serves as a reminder of the many battles LGBTQIA+ people have fought for their basic rights. This struggle is far from over, with a growing number of legislative efforts worldwide threatening people who identify as LGBTQIA+. Celebration is at the heart of what we do, but we understand that celebration must go hand-in-hand with action. We remain steadfast in our support for LGBTQIA+ advocacy organizations, including our partner, the National LGBT Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC). This Pride Month, we’ve launched various internal events, both virtually and at our office locations, from volunteer initiatives to participating in parades and hosting educational sessions. Our brands have also created plenty of new content in recognition of Pride Month. A couple of my favorites in case you’d like to check them out… The Knot: https://lnkd.in/eBSDn2s3 Hitched: https://lnkd.in/eaAeqKGu I am excited to share a short video from last night’s Pride event in D.C. It was truly heartwarming to see our team members come together to honor the LGBTQIA+ community. There is always more work to be done, but I am grateful that the team at TKWW is dedicated to contributing to a more inclusive and equitable future.

Is this a little late to post for Trans Day of Visibility back in March? Maybe. But it’s not too late for Pride Month! 🏳️🌈 In honor of celebrating the LGBTQ+ community this month, I wanted to share this powerful piece of work I got a chance to be apart of for MAC Cosmetics! MAC has been a longtime supporter of the LGBTQ+ community, donating millions of dollars to support equality, providing gender-affirming care through beauty services and products, and being a safe space for queer individuals to explore and express themselves. To help MAC announce their newest VIVA GLAM grantee and partner, The Trevor Project, we created this beautiful video that highlighted the role makeup plays in self-discovery and identity expression. 💋Career Learning: I served as the Director of Scripts on and off set, where I helped craft the conversation to feel informative, authentic, and inspirational. It was important that the narrative not only checked the legal and marketing boxes, but that it ultimately centered trans joy rather than struggle. I learned that to tell an authentic story, you have to leave room for the talent or subject to actually tell theirs and not over-produce it. 💋LGBTQ+ Ally Learning: As an ally, I try to constantly listen and learn to best support the community. To be honest, it got difficult on set at times. Emotions were high as we covered difficult self-discovery moments and discussed overcoming very hard and very real obstacles. I learned that even when there’s a job to do, humanity comes first. Give space for your talent to feel and process as they’re telling their story. A few extra breaks and words of encouragement can go a long way. Super grateful for this experience and proud to have been apart of a team that values good storytelling, good production, and good causes ❤️💄 (Shoutout to the MAC Mustache crew who I won’t tag for the sake of post length 🥲) Check out the video here: https://lnkd.in/eP67G3Jp #beauty #maccosmetics #trevorproject #transvisibility #pridemonth #copywriter

June is Pride Month, a time to celebrate diversity, and inclusivity, as well as highlight the ongoing fight for equal rights and opportunities for the LGBTQ+ community. We are proud to stand with and support the incredible work of Mermaids, a charity close to our hearts. Mermaids is dedicated to supporting transgender, non-binary, and gender-diverse children, young people, and their families. We believe that embracing and empowering all members of the trans community is crucial for any organisation, regardless of the industry. This is why we are honoured to fund Mermaids’ local group activities, which create a safe space to celebrate and uplift the community. Jo and the Thornicroft family have felt the benefit of the amazing work of this charity first-hand. The care they have provided, and their unwavering support have been a huge help and immeasurable comfort in such a turbulent and troubled time. We strive to support them, as they have us, in the hope they will be able to continue their important work and care for other families just like ours. Mermaids also helps businesses to improve their support of LGBTQ+ employees and customers through essential resources and CPD-accredited training. If you're interested in learning more about Mermaids' training courses and how to foster a more inclusive environment within your organisation, check out the link here: Training - Mermaids (mermaidsuk.org.uk) #Mermaids #PrideMonth #Community #Inclusivity #Equality

PhD Researcher in Global Education and PhD Lecturer in Psychology at Coventry University, UK
Hey just curious, to LGBT+ people out there.... Have you ever donated clothing or material goods to other LGBT+ people? If so, what was one of the reasons you did so? Money? The environment? Shift through Identity formation and subversion? I'm trying to write a paper on LGBT+ people's experiences of environmental care through materiality. Any comments or experiences are greatly appreciated. Thanks. #transmateriality #environment

What Limits LGBTQIA+ Rights?Anti-LGBTQIA+ legislation undermines rights, limits access to healthcare, free speech and expression, and impacts education. The ACLU tracks the 494 anti-LGBTQ bills currently targeting these communities. There are hundreds of anti-transgender bills this year alone that aim to limit the rights of this population. In the spirit of making a tangible #impact, we are proud to share our guide highlighting the struggles and triumphs of the LGBTQIA+ community. This resource is designed to help donors and allies understand the root causes of inequitable outcomes and outline opportunities to support change. 🌈 Explore the guide here: https://lnkd.in/eQsyuEm4 come together this #PrideMonth and beyond to create a more inclusive and just world for all. #GivingCompass #SocialChange #philanthropy #LGBTQIA+ #Rights #legislation #DonorEducation
