This June marks the 50th anniversary of the 1969 Stonewall Uprising, which gave rise to Pride Month. There are tons of ways you can help support the LGBTQ+ community during June and every month thereafter: for one, you can donate to a charity working to promote equality, eliminate discrimination, and provide people under the LGBTQ+ umbrella with resources for healthcare and education. You can also show your support by attending Pride celebrations (like a Pride Parade in your city!).

You can also send a message with your apparel and your dollars. Brands like Nike, Adidas, and Reebok have launched Pride-themed workout clothes and gear with something extra: proceeds are being donated to various LGBTQ+ organisations. Ahead, you'll find a handful (and then some) of these brands' gear that stand for human acceptance and love. Plus, for all things Pride, check out POPSUGAR's Pride Month 2019 hub featuring interviews with nonbinary actors, personal essays from the queer community, and more.

1. Nike: BETRUE Collection

Since 2012, Nike has come out with a BETRUE collection in honour of Pride Month every year. The 2019 BETRUE Collection features shoes, apparel, and gear adorned with the eight original colours of the Pride Flag in recognition of the 40 years since political activist Gilbert Baker debuted his rainbow design at the 1979 San Francisco Pride Parade. This particular shirt is the Nike BETRUE Unisex Tank ($35).

The 2019 launch coincides with Nike's commitment to rewarding over 20 LGBTQ+ organisations with grants administered by the Charities Aid Foundation of America (read more about that here). Grant recipients this year include the National Gay Basketball Association and the Los Angeles LGBT Centre. Plus, check out a sneak peak of more rainbow shoe styles coming out later this month.

3. ASOS: ASOS Design x GLAAD

This is the third launch of ASOS Design x GLAAD. 100 percent of the net profit made from this collection will go directly to GLAAD, an organisation focussed on LGBTQ+ media advocacy (meaning, it works to start global conversations and ensure that the media depicts LGBTQ+ stories fairly and inclusively and covers important LGBTQ+ issues). The collection includes clothes printed with the words "unity," "equality," and "acceptance" as well as graphics in support of GLAAD's & movement — like this Unisex Cropped Sweatshirt ($48).
