🌈 Indirect Donations
We partner with various organizations so they receive free merchandise and social media promotions. We also sponsor individual artists, troupes, collectives and events.
🌈 Supporting Hyperlocal, Regional, and National Movements
We create, curate and share—products, experiences, & resources to help LGBTQIA2+ communities thrive. It starts in Austin, TX for us but we support queer creators everywhere.
🌈 Human-First Marketplace (also very gay)
Shopping online should be more than a transactional experience - it should build community and relationships, just like shopping in person. When you shop on Rise Market you're not just supporting two queer trans human in love, in Texas too. You're supporting a radical queer network and pushing the message of acceptance, love and equity to every inch of it.
