Pinterest announced the expansion of the Creator Inclusion Fund, financial assistance and education programs for Pinterest creators, to five new countries, including Canada, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and France.
Starting in 2021, this program was created because Pinterest saw the need to lift creators from underrepresented communities such as the Black, Latin, Asian, Native communities, and also people with disabilities.
Since its launch, Pinterest admits that this program has provided support and a way to success for dozens of Creators from the US, United Kingdom, and Brazil in the fields of Fashion, Beauty, Lifestyle, Health, and Food.
"They have received in-depth industry training and insight from experts in their fields, personalized consultations, and financial grants in the form of cash and advertising credit," the company wrote on its official website, quoted Wednesday, April 5.
Furthermore, Pinterest also said that the Creator's Inclusion Fund cycle in North America in 2023 will focus on environmental sustainability content such as recycling, farming, saving, gardening, and other more sustainable content.
Participants who meet the requirements from the US and Canada can register using a form that you can find on the official Pinterest website from April 4, 2023 to April 13, 2023.
Not only individual users, the company also allows independent publishers, digital magazines, and other collections of content to be able to participate in this program. Funds in the UK, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and France will open later this year.
Our mission is to inspire everyone to create their loved ones' lives, and inspiration is driven by the diversity of experiences, perspectives and communities," said Zeny Shifferaw, Kreator Inclusion Leader at Pinterest.
By expanding this program, Shifferaw believes it will open up more opportunities for less represented creators and content producers disproportionately to gain financial support, exposure, resources, and reach new audiences who want to be inspired by their passions on their platform.
