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.

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.

Violence against women is a global issue that affects millions of women every year. It's a problem that impacts not only the individual women who are victims but also their families and communities.

By donating to this project, you can help ensure that women have access to the help they need to escape violent situations, get medical attention, and rebuild their lives. Even small donations can make a significant impact, providing shelters, hotlines, and counseling services to struggling women. Your gift can help break the cycle of violence and create a safer world for women and girls. Remember, together, and we can make a difference and help end violence against women.

There are many misconceptions and myths around Cinco de Mayo and its significance in Mexican Culture and History. In the US, it has historically been seen as a day of celebration commonly mistaken for Mexico’s Independence Day. But south of the border, the holiday merits very little as the actual 1862 event is a reminder of a tough outgunned invasion of Puebla by the French army. While it was a battle won it was a war that was lost. In an effort to help shed light about this date we will be using this day not to celebrate but instead to raise awareness and funding about Mexican Heritage and help bring equity and change to those that identify as such and are in need of Legal and Educational resources.

Each year on March 31, International Transgender Day of Visibility celebrates the joy and resilience of trans and non-binary people everywhere by elevating their voices, visibility and experiences. We must however acknowledge that current discourse in the public sphere and increase in discriminatory legislation is taking a deep toll on the wellbeing of the transgender community. More and more trans people are increasingly worried about their own safety as we must always remember that anti-trans legislation and sentiment are directly tied to anti-trans violence. This Trans Day of Visibility, Pride@ invites you to support organisations from 4 Pinterest regions, which support transgender rights.

The International Labor Organization (ILO) reports that almost ten million people today are being forced into sexual slavery. Victims of sex trafficking acquire adverse physical and psychological health conditions and social problems. Thus, sex trafficking is a critical health issue with broader social implications requiring medical and legal attention. The project provides emergency rescue operations and aftercare for at-risk women and girls sold into sex work and affected by HIV/AIDS in DRC.

A 22-year-old woman, Masha Amini, was killed by morality police in Iran. In mid-September 2022, a 22-year-old Iranian-Kurdish woman named Masha Amini was arrested by the morality police — because she was not wearing a hijab — while visiting Iran’s capital Tehran with her family, as reported by The New York Times. The morality police detailed Amini, and while in their custody, authorities confirmed that she died, attributing her sudden death to a heart attack. However, CT scans of Amini’s body proved that she experienced a brain hemorrhage; eyewitness accounts, as well as footage and images of Amini after she was arrested, have led many to speculate that Iran’s morality police physically beat her. At the same time, she was detained, causing her to die. We have created this fund to fight the “relentless battle against the Iranian regime’s misogyny” and advocate the right for women to choose what they wear — essentially protesting the hijab laws. The fund will support the committee’s efforts to help achieve equal rights for Iranian women. The fund will buy billboards, ads, and other large-scale visibility options in major cities. Uplifting the voices of the Iranian people through these mediums will bring national and international awareness to our communities regarding the worldwide protests on this human rights issue.In the United States, You may be able to claim a deduction on your federal taxes if you donated to this fund.

If Yanomami is ill, so is Planet Earth The Yanomami Indigenous Territory is the largest of its kind in Brazil and was established in 1992 by the government. The Yanomami people believe they are the guardians of the Amazon Forest - in the words of Shaman Davi Kopenawa: “there is only one sky and we must take care of it, if it becomes sick, everything will come to an end”. Last month, Brazilian government declared a public health emergency in the Yanomami Indigenous Territory. Shocking images of starving children and elders were made public, bringing attention to the tragedy caused by years of illegal mining in this region of Amazon. Protecting the rights of Indigenous and local communities, and strengthening their economies, is not just the right thing to do. It’s the smart thing to do. Indigenous people take care of forests better than anyone in the world, and we all need healthy forests to slow climate change. The Green Team Brazil created a fund-raising campaign to support the Yanomami people through the work of ISA – Instituto Socioambiental, a non-profit organization devoted to defend Brazilian indigenous communities and their socio-environmental diversity.

The following organizations are doing the important work to actively fight antisemitism by investigating, reporting on, and speaking out against antisemitic acts, educating the masses on the history and dangers of antisemitism, and supporting those impacted by antisemitism.

As a nonprofit whose core value is social justice and inclusion, we are committed to equality and justice – and these commitments have never been more important than they are today. Hatred, discrimination, and injustice are unacceptable and have no place in our societies. We have seen a rise in xenophobic actions around the world, as the economic and psychological impacts of COVID-19 spread. We cannot stay silent in the face of racial injustice whether it is within our communities or outside of them. No one should feel threatened or afraid because of the color of their skin, or who they are, or who they choose to be. We all have a responsibility to end discrimination and intolerance — and to seek justice, reconciliation, and healing. We stand with the family of George Floyd and the countless other families and communities who have suffered discrimination, hatred, or racial violence. We must stay vigilant and do our part to build toward justice and equality for all people. Our actions, both individually and collectively, can make a difference, especially now. Black people are being murdered and brutalized by police with near impunity. Act with us to end racism, demand racial justice, and defend our right to protest. We abhor racism. We do not tolerate it. Racism and inequality continue to create injustice for too many people in this world. Too many people see their lives and their opportunity threatened by the color of their skin.

Gender equality is not only a fundamental human right, but a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world. There has been progress over the last decades, but the world is not on track to achieve gender equality by 2030. The social and economic fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic has made the situation even bleaker. Progress in many areas, including time spent on unpaid care and domestic work, decision-making regarding sexual and reproductive health, and gender-responsive budgeting, is falling behind. Women’s health services, already poorly funded, have faced major disruptions. Violence against women remains endemic. And despite women’s leadership in responding to COVID-19, they still trail men in securing the decision-making positions they deserve. Commitment and bold action are needed to accelerate progress, including through the promotion of laws, policies, budgets and institutions that advance gender equality. Greater investment in gender statistics is vital, since less than half of the data required to monitor Goal 5 are currently available. Join in supporting the Fund. Your contributions — no matter how big or small — make an impact

There are more people who live in slavery alive today than during the entirety of the European/American slave trade. Conservative estimates place this number at over 4.5M people in just Asia, including women and children. The vast majority are in slavery over a medical debt for a life-saving procedure. The initial loans are never more than a few hundred dollars. If they can’t make the payments they are taken as slaves to work off the debt in brick kilns. Fines, interest, penalties, and other unethical charges are levied making it physically impossible for them to ever pay the debt. A debt that is passed down to their children if the parent dies. The average cost is $327 per person. That’s not a typo. People who have been living as slaves, oftentimes for their entire life, are able to go free for $327. Entire families are set free together for less money than a weekend at Disney World. This includes enough to help them get on their feet and help them establish a source of income. The workers live in deplorable conditions, the water they use to mix the soil gives them skin diseases and the hazardous fumes from the billowing black smoke during the brick-making process causes asthma and other diseases and increase the risk of contracting tuberculosis. There are no proper toilet facilities, at the kilns or where the workers live. The women have to go in the open, either late at night or early morning. They are harassed, their photos are taken and these women are then exploited. They have no hope of ever being free until God moved on the hearts of generous conduit donors to pay their debt, which was all from medical bills. Today they are free. More than 250 families have been set free.! Thank you for your generosity in making this possible. If you want to help follow the link below.
