On her 32nd birthday, Selena Gomez just gave us the gift.

Five years ago, Selena and Rare Beauty launched the Rare Impact Fund with a clear mission: to help young people around the world feel seen, supported, and emotionally cared for.

Since then, they have funded over 30 organizations globally and have directly impacted more than 2 million lives.

Now, Selena’s vision is evolving even further with the official launch of The Giving Circle, a brand new way for fans and supporters to join the movement.

Mental health has always been deeply personal to me, and I wanted to build something that could create lasting change,” Selena shared.

The Giving Circle is a new initiative from the Rare Impact Fund where anyone (yes, you) can join a community of changemakers and contribute as little as $1 a month.

Members will receive monthly updates from nonprofit partners, curated mental health content, and hands-on opportunities to get involved. It’s not just about giving money. It’s about showing up. It’s about community. It’s about doing something rare.

It’s about believing in the power of community to create lasting change,” Selena said. “Let’s build a future where every young person has the mental health support they deserve.

Contributions to The Giving Circle directly support the Fund’s global nonprofit partners who are breaking barriers and expanding access to mental health services and education for youth everywhere.

Five years in, I’m so proud of the impact we’ve all made together and excited for The Giving Circle and other initiatives we are planning,” Selena told PEOPLE in an exclusive statement.

At its core, The Giving Circle is a beautiful reflection of everything Selena stands for: compassion, connection, and using your voice (and platform) for purpose.

As a longtime advocate and survivor of her own mental health battles, Selena has transformed pain into power in a way that inspires millions.

So today, we raise a glass (or a soft-serve, Selena style) to one of the most genuine hearts in pop culture. Happy Birthday, Selena Gomez, and thank you for showing us what rare impact really looks like.
