FAMILY IS #BEAUTIFULGBTQ

Mom drying daughters hair with text that reads, "Family Is #BeautifuLGBTQ+"

Our partners at Pantene show how connection makes family:

For many, hair is heritage. Hair is strength. Hair is self-expression. Hair is Pride.

And for LGBTQ+ couples—who are seven times more likely to adopt or foster children—it can mean even more: Connection. Trust. Attachment. Family.


Show your support for #BeautifuLGBTQ families!

Join us in support of family equality for all by sharing your own family photo using the hashtag #BeautifuLGBTQ on social media. For each photo shared, Pantene will donate $1 to Family Equality (up to $100,000).


Who is Family Equality?

Family Equality is fighting for a world where:

  • All LGBTQ+ families live in communities that recognize, respect, and protect them.
  • All LGBTQ+ people have the right and opportunity to form and sustain a loving family.
  • The systems that serve LGBTQ+ youth and families are free of discrimination.
