June is Pride Month, and these 19 brands are stepping up and giving back to the LGBTQIA+ community.

Pride Month originated as a way to commemorate the Stonewall Riots in New York City that ended in June of 1969. The Stonewall Riots were spontaneous demonstrations by the gay community in response to a police raid at the Stonewall Inn in Greenwich Village. A tipping point in the Gay Liberation Movement, the community initially commemorated the Stonewall Riots for a day in the end of June, but it has since evolved to a month-long commemoration.

It takes more than flying rainbow flags, turning logos rainbow-colored, or posting an Instagram picture to show support now. While some brands are continuing to be an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community, many are taking it a step further and donating to philanthropic causes to pledge their support. Check out these fashion & beauty brands below that are donating to LGBTQIA+ causes for Pride Month.
