June is Pride Month, and Microsoft is celebrating in several ways across several of its brands. You can grab Pride themes for Xbox consoles, Microsoft 365 apps, Skype, Microsoft Edge, and your Windows 10 PC. You can also pick up a Pride skin for your Surface device and Pride gear, such as shirts. Microsoft says that its collection of Pride-themed products is the largest and most inclusive that it's ever had.
In addition to having a wide range of ways for people to express their pride, Microsoft is donating $150,000 to nonprofits that help LGBTQI+ communities. Here's the full list of nonprofits selected by LGBTQI+ communities at Microsoft:
- ACLU Foundation
- OutRight Action International
- Act To Change
- BEAM (Black Emotional and Mental Health Collective)
- Mermaids
- The Trevor Project
In a blog post on its Pride efforts, Microsoft vice president and chief marketing officer Chris Capossela discusses the company's efforts.
That's why this Pride, the LGBTQI+ communities at Microsoft invite everyone to join in our call for justice and equity, as we highlight how societal issues that are often seen as separate and unrelated impact us all. The challenges we face are hard to solve. But as the stories of Microsoft employees and activists show, if we come together, we can make an impact and create change.
This year's Pride-themed products include 19 different LGBTQI+ flags. Several designs incorporate multiple flags coming together.
Microsoft will also host a virtual "Together, we can" event on Thursday, June 24 at 10 AM PT.
