Through her Happy Hippie Foundation, Miley rallies for young people to stand up against the injustices that D6 face LGBTQ youth today.

International pop star and philanthropist Miley Cyrus is known for using her voice on and off the stage to speak out for people’s rights. Through her Happy Hippie Foundation, she rallies young people to stand up against the injustices that face LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transexual, Queer/Questioning) youth today.

In the same spirit, Converse’s latest campaign, “Yes To All,” supports the youth’s freedom of expression and the belief that everyone is free to be exactly who they are, regardless of gender, sexual orientation or identity.

This year, 100 percent of net proceeds of direct sales from the Converse Pride Collection will go to charities supporting LGBTQ initiatives, including The Happy Hippie Foundation, whose mission is to create positive outcomes in the lives of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender youth around the world.

Working with Converse as an ally in this movement means the world to me,” said Cyrus. “Converse champions youth and how important it is to give young individuals the ability to raise their voice and define their culture. I’m excited to work alongside a brand that shares both my values and style.”
