Disney has just announced details of their 2022 Disney Pride Collection. Here’s the info:
Disney has a long history of supporting LGBTQIA+ organizations and charities around the world, including GLSEN in the U.S. This year, we are further deepening our support. We will be donating all of our profits from the Disney Pride Collection sales now through June 30, 2022, to organizations that support LGBTQIA+ youth and families. This includes merchandise from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, and Star Wars.
The annual collection in celebration of Pride was first introduced in 2018 and this year, we are excited to debut new branding for the Disney Pride Collection, dreamed up and designed by members and allies of the community, for members and allies of the community. Be on the lookout for more stories about not only the amazing cast members working on this collection, but also other members of the community making magic around the world.
In the U.S., profits from the collection will benefit GLSEN, PFLAG, The Trevor Project, Zebra Coalition, Los Angeles LGBT Center, LGBT Center Orange County, San Francisco LGBT Center and Ali Forney Center. Profits from other regions around the world will continue to support local charities in those countries. You can learn more about these organizations and their incredible, impactful work by visiting TWDCPrideCollection.com.
The first items in the Disney Pride Collection are available now at shopDisney.com, but be sure to be on the lookout for additional pieces in the near future showcasing how we are always proud.
The Disney Pride Collection is just one way Disney Parks, Experiences and Products is showing our support for the LGBTQIA+ community during the month of June. There’s plenty to celebrate at our theme parks and resorts, from entertainment and art displays to festive décor, Disney PhotoPass Service photo opportunities, and themed food and beverage offerings. We’ll also be highlighting inspirational and celebratory stories about our guests, cast and community.
As always, keep checking back with us here at BlogMickey.com as we continue to bring you the latest news, photos, and info from around the Disney Parks!
Such HYPOCRISY!
IF Disney REALLY was supportive of the LGBTQ community as they claim, they wouldn’t be visiting cruise ports that outlaw homosexuality.
But, as long as it makes them money, they turn a blind eye…
* Their Southern Caribbean Disney Cruise departing in July includes a stop in Dominica, where homosexuality is illegal and carries a penalty of up to ten years imprisonment.
* In Antigua, same-sex sexual activity carries a penalty of up to 15 years in prison.
* In St. Maarten, performing same-sex marriages on the island is illegal, and it is prohibited to change one’s legal gender.
* And, Disney+ is expanding into Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Morocco, Oman, Palestinian Authority, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia and Yemen – all of which outlaw homosexuality.
* EVERY bit of their merchandise is made in Chinese sweat shops while China performs electric shock therapy & forced medication in Chinese hospitals in order to force “gay conversions”.
But you don’t hear any outrage against that, do you?
Such hypocrisy by Disney…It’s ok to do business with anti-LGBTQ countries as long as it makes them MONEY….
If you dont support the way Disney does things, Then dont support them by spending your money with them. Most of the world doesn’t care about this stuff you are calling out (Except maybe the China sweatshop part). In fact, I am disappointed that Disney is giving money to the announced “organizations”. There are better places for Disney to give money away.
