@rarebeauty Happy birthday to our Founder @selenagomez 🥳 You constantly remind us that vulnerability is strength, kindness always matters, and that a birthday cake photo is mandatory. We love you, Sel! 💜 __ Today, we’re honoring our Founder on her birthday and celebrating the heart behind her work. Selena has always envisioned a world where young people feel seen, supported, and less alone. Through the Rare Impact Fund, that vision has grown into a global movement that has reached more than 3.5 million young people and supported 30 nonprofit organizations working to expand access to youth mental health resources around the world. If you’d like to learn more and are able to, you can support the Rare Impact Fund through the link in our bio. It’s a meaningful way to celebrate the community Selena has inspired and the impact we can continue creating together.
