What is a girl without her GBF? Nothing. And what is the LGBT community without your support? June marks the start of pride month. Pride month advocates work for equal “rights and benefits” for LGBT people.

USA Network’s Characters Unite public service initiative is teaming up with CB2 for a special multi-platform campaign to help combat hate and discrimination. CB2 stores in LA, San Francisco, New York City, Chicago and Toronto are holding an open event to help the month-long effort in fostering greater tolerance, acceptance and benefit GLSEN (Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network).

CB2 stores and cb2.com will be selling a messenger bag for $79.95. And $30 from each sale will go to support GLSEN’s work in high schools across the country. The messenger bag will retail for $79.95. Image attached for your use.
