The Pronoun pin project
The Pronoun Pin Project
Our goal is to make folx feel seen, heard and accepted.
Pins are a small gesture, help start conversations and are a good place to start.
MAOKE Made enamel pronoun pins are available at PDX Handmade’s online store.
$2 of every pin sold is being donated to trans/queer causes.
The Pronoun Pin Project
Where did it start?
Our company MAOKE Made (Making Acts Of Kindness Everywhere) is designed to making things that impact the world positively, like working with digital fabrication methods, or like our current project - making pronoun pins.
We designed these originally as a side project when Sami’s sibling came out as nonbinary, using they/them pronouns.
Our first hand made prototypes - we made hundreds and gifted them within our Portland, San Francisco, Philadelphia communities.
Mx. Lee - the person who inspired this project! Check out their art here
solidarity
We made pronoun pins to not only help them show their pronouns, but so we as cis allies could normalize the use of pronouns. This has been a journey for us as well, adopting gender neutral language in all aspects of our lives. We wear these pins as often as possible and give them away to support our nonbinary, trans, genderqueer, etc. friends.
