Happy Pride Month!

Pride is a time for celebration, self-expression, and community. Queer individuals are part of Modrinth at every level: across our team, our creator community, and the wider Minecraft community as a whole. We're very proud to be vocal in our support for LGBTQIA+ rights all year round.

But for many people, Pride is a celebration that comes with great risk. Recent reporting shows there's no shortage of tragedies facing LGBTQIA+ people. Threats, attacks, and even worse happen around the world - Juniper Blessing and Shyyell Diamond Sanchez-McCray, trans rights activists Zehrish Khanzadi and Bindiya Rana surviving gunfire in Pakistan, and many more cases like these are reminders that safety is not guaranteed for some members of our community.

That's why this Pride Month, Modrinth will be running a fundraiser supporting Rainbow Railroad.

Rainbow Railroad works with LGBTQIA+ people who are facing danger, helping to connect them with support, resources, and pathways to safe countries. Through their Solidarity in Pride 2026 campaign, they're raising funds to help at-risk LGBTQIA+ people access safety when staying in place is no longer an option.

You can support the fundraiser here.

When donating, please enter your Modrinth username as the Tiltify display name so we can apply any eligible rewards to your account!

Donation Matching Commitment

We want to maximize the impact our community can make.

To help achieve this, we've committed to matching all donations 1:1 until our fundraising goal of $5,000 has been met.

Donor Rewards

This year, we will also be providing rewards as a small thank you to everyone who supports the fundraiser. Including a few limited rewards specific to this year's fundraiser!

Pride Badge 2026 & Pride Skins

Everyone who donates will receive a special Pride 2026 profile badge on Modrinth.

Supporters with this badge will also unlock a special Pride section in the Skin selector in the Modrinth App featuring the incredibly cute Mr. Pack in Pride-themed, exclusive Modrinth skins:

Modrinth+

Donations of $5 (USD) or more will grant you with free Modrinth+ benefits for 1 month as an additional thank-you - available to users who do not already have an active Modrinth+ subscription.

Pride Collection 2026

Alongside the fundraiser, we're also launching the Modrinth Pride Collection!

This collection highlights projects made by and for the queer community, including mods, resource packs, modpacks, plugins, and more across Modrinth.

You can submit projects all month long

Throughout June, we'll be featuring selected projects from the collection across our social media alongside our usual creator spotlights. Pride is about visibility, and we want to use this month to celebrate the LGBTQIA+ creators and communities that help make Modrinth what it is.
