Celebrate Diversity: Zenni 2019 Pride Collection

#SEEMORELOVE in rainbow-colored text.

Our Zenni customers, or Zennistas as we like to call them, are like family to us. While we  believe in celebrating diversity and inclusion all year long, we always like to do something extra special in June to celebrate LGBTQ+ month. This year, we’re encouraging everyone to see more love with our /pride-glasses”>2019 Pride collection featuring rainbow frames.

Throughout the month of June, Zenni will be donating 100% of the proceeds from the sales of our rainbow Pride collection to the It Gets Better Project, a nonprofit organization with the mission to uplift, empower, and connect lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer youth around the globe. Last year, thanks to our Zennistas, we raised $20,000 for the It Gets Better Project. Let’s see if we can top it this year!

We can’t wait to see everyone rocking their Pride frames! Below are some other ways that you can show your love and support the LGBTQ+ community in a positive way all year long:

  • Use your rainbow frames as a conversation starter and encourage your friends to support the cause.
  • Share your photos on social media and tag #seemorelove.
  • Be a role model for kindness and inclusion.
  • Donate your time or money to a local LGBTQ+ organization in your area.
