Help the
Revolt today
Your contribution helps us develop emerging LGBTQ musicians who are speaking their truth openly and unapologetically. We use these funds to create opportunities for them to record, perform, and grow their platforms. We also support grassroots LGBTQ groups that are overlooked and help identify safe spaces in Washington DC and beyond where people can exist authentically.
Rainbows In Revolt is NOT a nonprofit organization. Contributions are NOT tax deductible.
Why give?
-
✽
When you support us, you’re giving emerging LGBTQ musicians a fighting chance. You help pay for studio time, recording, promotion, touring, and media support. Many of these artists don’t have access to industry funding or traditional backing. By contributing directly, you help them build their careers on their own terms. Their identity, truth, and lived experience become visible through sound and art — and that visibility matters.

✽
Beyond artists, we put energy into smaller LGBTQ+ groups and initiatives that often go unnoticed and underfunded. These organizations are doing meaningful work: mental-health support, advocacy, mutual aid, community outreach, resources for trans folks or youth, and more. Your support helps us invest in them; giving them a platform, funds, and connections they might not otherwise receive.
-
✽
We know how important it is to have spaces where LGBTQ+ people feel seen, accepted, and able to express themselves freely. With your help we search for and support venues, community hubs, and environments where artists and community members can come together without fear, judgment, or gatekeeping. These safe spaces enable art, community building, activism, and identity affirmation… all year round.

What you’re supporting is not a one-time show or a seasonal trend. You’re contributing to a living, breathing collective that centers queer autonomy, grassroots growth, and community solidarity. Your support helps us keep programming, events, music production, and outreach alive; long after Pride season ends.

Queer people; especially trans folks, BIPOC queer folks, and those marginalized in mainstream spaces, deserve representation. When you support Rainbows In Revolt, you help amplify voices that are frequently ignored by corporate platforms. You give power to authenticity, truth, and self-expression.

This isn’t a purchase. It’s not merch. It’s not event-attendance. It’s direct community support. It lets you contribute even when you can’t buy or attend. It makes you part of a movement that invests in people first, not profit margins.
