The Trevor Project

The two of us have been privileged to grow up in communities where our family and friend groups we surrounded ourselves with were accepting of our sexual identities with open arms and have been there for us whenever needed.

 

Not all LGBTQ youth have the same experience. Please join us as we raise money for the world’s largest suicide prevention and crisis intervention organization for LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning) young people, The Trevor Project.

 

We understand that everyone is traveling from afar, so in lieu of gifts please feel free to make a donation to this cause if you so wish.

 

The mission of The Trevor Project is to end suicide among gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and questioning young people. The organization works to fulfill this mission through four strategies:

 

1. Provide crisis counseling to LGBTQ young people thinking of suicide.

 

2. Offer resources, supportive counseling and a sense of community to LGBTQ young people to reduce the risk that they become suicidal.

 

3. Educate young people and adults who interact with young people on LGTBQ-competent suicide prevention, risk detection and response.

 

4. Advocate for laws and policies that will reduce suicide among LGBTQ young people.
