Hi Friend,
An estimated 1.8 million LGBTQ+ young people in the United States consider suicide every year.
Every 45 seconds, an LGBTQ+ young person attempts suicide in the U.S.
The statistics above point to a dire reality, and they’re why I’m reaching out to you today.
As The Trevor Project’s Chief Officer of Prevention, I oversee our efforts to proactively prevent suicide through policy change, public education, research, and peer support.
Ending LGBTQ+ youth suicide can only happen when we create environments that not only accept LGBTQ+ young people but celebrate them. Together, we can work towards making this a reality.
By giving today — during our Month of Giving — you get us closer to a world where no LGBTQ+ young person considers suicide — a loving world that all young people deserve.
Your gift will be matched $5 for $1, thanks to a $100,000 matching gift from The Atwood Family.
