After days of shopping and deals, Giving Tuesday provides a moment of reflection and generosity. This Giving Tuesday, Colorproof is proud to support the It Gets Better Project. Typically, the holidays are a source of joy and light, but for many around the world, this time of year is particularly hard, especially if you feel isolated or not accepted by those around you. For many LGBTQ+ youth, this is their reality. Through our partnership with It Gets Better, we hope to help reverse and instill hope and light to the LGBTQ+ community.
We have mentioned some sobering statistics around LGBTQ+ youth on our blog before and unfortunately, the holidays do not ease any of these problems and can often make going about daily life more difficult. Going home to relatives who are not accepting, and often outright rejecting, coupled with traditional holiday anxiety, is one of the many reasons the holidays are so hard. To combat this, one of the most important and impactful actions is to connect with allies during this time. Therefore we, at Colorproof, find it vital to support It Gets Better, not just during Pride month in June, but whenever our support is most needed.
As a brand rooted in color, we embrace and celebrate all colors, voices and personal expressions. Colorproof embraces its ever-growing, colorful community through transparency, diversity and open communication and we join It Gets Better in striving to achieve connection and togetherness in communities around the world. According to It Gets Better Project, “every dollar donated is a commitment to a brighter and more hopeful future for LGBTQ+ youth” and through storytelling and education initiatives funded by these donations, It Gets Better works hard to achieve that future.
This Tuesday, November 29 th through Wednesday, November 30 th , ColorProof will donate 20% of retail product sales on colorproof.com to the It Gets Better Project and to encourage you to shop, we are also offering you 20% off your order – something for you, something for good!
