YouPay Joins Pineapple Support as Sponsor, Introduces 'Permanent Donation' Feature

LOS ANGELES — Australian gifting platform YouPay has joined the ranks of Pineapple Support’s partner-level sponsors.

Following their July fundraising campaign, which raised over $4,000 for Pineapple Support, YouPay has also introduced a permanent $1 donation option to its platform at checkout.

“The adult content creator community is significant for us at YouPay, and we've seen firsthand the mental health challenges that creators experience,” said YouPay founder and CEO Matt Holme. “The work that Pineapple Support does is amazing, and the team at YouPay is grateful to all of our users for their support in helping us raise funds this year. Our fundraising campaign has been so successful that we've committed to Pineapple Support to make this an annual event.”

Founded in 2018 by Leya Tanit, Pineapple Support has so far connected over 14,000 adult performers and industry members to mental health services, including free and low-cost therapy, counseling, and emotional support.

“We are so grateful to YouPay for their generous campaign and ongoing support,” said Tanit. “Their commitment will help us reach more performers in need of mental health resources, and the success of this campaign is an inspiration for other companies to consider similar actions to support our community’s mental well-being.”
