Chasing Rainbows Stands With YOU
In pivotal moments like the present, we must support each other to catalyze hope.
Recent actions from the Trump Administration pose a direct threat to the LGBTQ+ community, targeting trans kids in sports, trans adults in the military, and restricting trans healthcare, threatening to erase trans existence, especially by removing crucial identification and guidance documents needed to ensure LGBTQ+ protections.
Just days ago, the CDC and other agencies were ordered to remove LGBTQ+ health information from their websites. These developments are deeply concerning and inspire a mix of difficult emotions.
At Chasing Rainbows VC, we pride ourselves on our funding of LGBTQ+ led early-stage companies that make it their mission to create groundbreaking healthcare, education, sustainability, and financial inclusion-oriented products to improve the society in which we all live. Our bonds of community are strong, and while some may decry peaceful communities, LGBTQ+ lives are human lives. In these moments, leading as your best self is important. Prioritize self-compassion, self-care, and community and support from those closest to you.
To our advisers, investors, founders, and ecosystem partners - now is the time for us all to lean on each other and be each other’s support. You all mutually make our and each other’s work possible. We will continue to support you. We will continue to be your ear and a partner to your success - because the more LGBTQ+-led businesses we fund, the closer we come to building a brighter future for every single member of our community.
Thank you for continuing to stand with us on this journey.
Please reach out if there is anything we can do to support, to listen, or to act upon. Together, we will move forward in a positive, growth-oriented direction.
