ROAM Luggage's Involvement with the LGBTQ Community
ROAM Luggage is a brand that doesn't just talk the talk; they walk the walk! Last June, when hundreds of Pride organizations were hit hard by the pandemic and forced to cancel or postpone their Pride celebrations, ROAM quickly rallied behind the inaugural Virtual Pride hosted by GayTravel.com. The event was held on June 28 when 28 Pride organizations moved their Pride events online. This ambitious and pro-bono event was designed to 1) bring together those who would normally travel to a Pride event and; 2) provide Pride organizations with a digital platform while physical travel was curtailed. Virtual Pride surpassed all expectations with over 14 million impressions during a 5-hour event. Not only that, we learned that a Virtual Pride is a terrific adjunct to physical prides because it allowed lesser-known Prides to gain enhanced visibility and also allowed for a number of disabled individuals to celebrate who otherwise would not be able to participate.
"ROAM Luggage could not be more pleased to have the chance to support this inspiring event at an important moment in history. VirtualPride.com is a wonderful opportunity to "show our colors" and express our determination to help ensure equal rights and respect for the LGBTQ+ community."

In addition, ROAM luggage recently announced an ongoing initiative to support New Alternatives, a leading organization focused on increasing the self-sufficiency of LGBTQ+ homeless youth by enabling them to transition out of the shelter system to stable adult lives. ROAM will make a monthly donation of suitcases to New Alternative clients who often have no way to keep their belongings protected from the elements and easily transportable. ROAM will additionally promote New Alternatives and its vital mission through their social media and marketing channels, allowing a wider audience to learn about and support their work.
