Pride Month fashion and beauty collaborations that support LGBTQ causes

WATCH: What is LGBT Pride Month?

June is Pride Month, and pride-themed collections are in stores everywhere. But some brands go a step further and have pledged to direct a share of their profits to LGBTQ causes.

On May 30, H&M released an ad campaign for its "Stay True Stay You" collection that stars actress and LGBTQ advocate Laverne Cox as well as social media star Rickey Thompson.

In addition to designing Pride-themed clothing, the major retailer has also vowed to donate 10% of global sales from this collection to support the work of the United Nations' Free & Equal campaign.

The line includes colorful t-shirts, accessories, shoes, and more that include empowering words such as "everybody is free to love" and "proud."

There are also lots of splashes of rainbow decorated items that are a nod to the gay pride flag.

"My life changed when I started embracing more fully who I am," said Cox in a statement on H&M's website.

Like H&M, there are lots of other fashion and beauty Pride collaborations that will donate to charities this year.
