Shutterstock would be nothing without our creators, who fuel our enormous content library with their work. In gratitude for their contributions, we established The Create Fund, a grant program that provides financial and professional support for artists, focusing on diversity, inclusion, social justice, and environmental awareness through the content they create. Today The Create Fund kicks off the It Gets Better Project grant, which is dedicated to increasing and diversifying portrayals of LGBTQ+ individuals and the issues that matter to them. Genuine representation is more important than ever, and we want to help create art that depicts a more authentic look at our world.
Shutterstock is very proud to be featured in this list of companies that are truly making progress in supporting the Black community. We believe that DE&I should not just be something a company talks about, but something that is a natural part of the organization's DNA. Quite simply, DE&I should be woven into how we hire, collaborate and do business.
