The nearly four-minute video features 49 people sharing 49 prideful stories in honor of the lives lost at Pulse nightclub earlier in the month. Each YouTube view will lead to a donation match to OneOrlando from a corporate donor.

The track "Light" from the Pulitzer Prize-winning 2009 musical, Next to Normal, plays in the background as the stories are being shared. All proceeds from the single will benefit the One Orlando Fund, which is also accepting donations. You can also find out more by visiting RestInPRIDE.org, plus you can upload your own videos on the Facebook RestinPRIDE page.
