Hi Friend of Trevor,

It was hard to grow up as an LGBTQ young person in the 1970s. I wish there was something like The Trevor Project when I was 18.

That’s one reason why I’m so proud to work at Trevor as its Chief Operating Officer. Please reflect on what motivates your interest in our mission. As you do, I ask you to deepen your commitment by making your first gift and joining the Circle of Light, Trevor’s donor community.

Together, we’ll help ensure that Trevor’s trained crisis counselors will always be a call, chat, or text away from LGBTQ young people who reach out when they feel anxious, depressed, or overwhelmed.

With the end of our fiscal year just around the corner on July 31, we’re doing everything we can to ensure that every young person we communicate with gets the support they need.

Friend, given today’s economic and political uncertainty, your partnership and support are especially critical. Our community — kind, compassionate people like you — is the fuel that powers Trevor’s advocacy, crisis services, education, peer support, and research programs.

Please continue to help Trevor show up for LGBTQ young people. Become our newest donor with your first gift right now.

Growing up, I never heard the comforting, affirming words, “Hey, you're not the only one. There are other people like you.” Navigating my journey would’ve been so much easier if I had that support — even from one person.

So, I know from personal experience how needed Trevor’s services are — and I will continue to do everything in my power to move its life-saving mission forward. Please join me by making your gift today.

With gratitude and in partnership,

Carlos Carrazana
