Pride Collection: The Give-Back Story
Share
Every June, in celebration of Pride Month, we donate 100% of the profits from our ombre soap collection to the Trevor Project. 2026 is the third year we've done this expanded program, and we wanted to share the inspiration and details about it!
The Collection
There are 6 soaps in our Pride Collection, together forming a rainbow across collections.
Year-round give-back soap
Our intersectionality pride flag soap, celebrating diversity across all races, gender identities, and sexual orientations.
❤️🧡 Spiced Sunset
Desert Oasis Collection
Warm reds and oranges inspired by the last light over an open stretch of desert.
Victory Collection
A nod to a beloved 1940s dessert, from our collection inspired by the culture and nostalgia of that era.
Alpine Collection
Deep forest greens layered like the forested ridgelines it's named for.
💙 Deep Sea
Tropics Collection
Rich ocean blue, the color of water you can't quite see the bottom of.
Wildflower Collection
Soft purples, the color of a meadow in late summer just before the light changes.
Why the Trevor Project
The Trevor Project is the leading national organization focused on crisis intervention and suicide prevention for LGBTQ+ young people. Their services are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year - by phone, text, and chat. Every dollar donated goes toward keeping those lines open and staffed.
Mainland Vintage has proudly donated to the Trevor Project since 2021. We chose this organization to support because the work is meaningful and important, and we believe in supporting organizations that are helping LGBTQ+ youth build the future they deserve.
How the Giving Has Grown
We started this program in 2021 donating 25% of sales from our Pride soaps. In the years since, the give-back side of Mainland Vintage has grown alongside the brand itself - more soaps, more partners, more causes we care about. You can see the full picture on our Give Back Programs page.
The biggest shift came in early 2025. As the business grew, we were able to change our approach entirely - moving from 25% of sales to 100% of profits across all our give-back programs.
A Rainbow We Didn't Plan
While we can now look at all these soaps and love the rainbow they create, we didn't actually set out to build a rainbow. These six soaps came together one at a time, across four years, each one born from a completely different place and story.
Summer & Winter 2021
Deep Sea launched with the Tropics collection. That winter, North Cascades arrived with the Alpine collection. The response to both was the same - people loved the layered soaps!
2022
As we planned future collections, we knew there was room to keep building. Thrive with Pride launched in its current expanded form and became one of our top-selling soaps.
Summer 2023
Lemon Chiffon arrived with the Victory Collection, bringing the yellow.
Spring & Summer 2024
Flowering Fields joined the Wildflower collection in spring. That summer, Spiced Sunset from Desert Oasis completed the color spectrum. By June 2024 we had our full rainbow - and a plan for Pride Month.
Our Thrive with Pride soap has been part of every Pride Month since the beginning. We made a simpler rainbow version in 2021, but the current soap with the expanded color palette launched in 2022 and has been one of our top-selling soaps every year since.
Happy Pride - in June, and every month!
With appreciation,
Sara & the Mainland Vintage Team
