GET TO KNOW US
MEET TRANS IN DEMAND
OUR COMMITMENT
At Trans in Demand we are intentional about who we partner with. We conduct thorough due diligence to ensure that the agencies and brands we work with are not only inclusive in their messaging, but are actively supporting and uplifting LGBTQ+ individuals and other marginalized communities.
We ask thoughtful questions, expect accountability and are prepared to decline opportunities when a brand's actions or values do not align with our own or with the communities we serve.
Our commitment extends beyond partnership decisions. We actively invest in the gayborhoods and communities we are part of, contributing to their sustainability and growth with our Gaybors Fund. We also encourage others, especially those who have long benefited from LGBTQ+ consumers, to take meaningful steps toward reinvestment and genuine support. For us, this is not performative. It is a reflection of who we are, what we value and the kind of impact we choose to make.
