Dear Friend,

As we celebrate 27 years of Trevor’s mission to end suicide among LGBTQ+ young people, I know and see just how critical our work continues to be — for the next 27 years and more. We must continue to ensure that we can be here for all LGBTQ+ youth, wherever they are and whenever they need us.

I grew up in a traditional, religious family in South Texas, which was hard for me as a young queer person. I was lonely, awkward, afraid, and grappling with my identity.

I desperately needed a support network like The Trevor Project, but it didn’t exist yet. I came to lead The Trevor Project because I am deeply, personally invested in our work to support LGBTQ+ young people in crisis.

And I’ve seen the incredible dedication of the Trevor community and I know you care deeply about the safety and well-being of LGBTQ+ young people.

Friend, I hope we can count on you to give a special gift today on Trevor’s 27th birthday and our 24-hour giving day, Together for Trevor. I’m excited to announce that as soon as we raise $30,000, it will release a matching gift of $30,000.* Will you help unlock $30,000 in matching support?

Committed Trevor community members like you play a critical role in providing resources for Trevor’s highest priority — our ability to offer free, secure, 24/7 crisis intervention services and continue our suicide prevention programs for LGBTQ+ young people. We’ve been here for one generation of LGBTQ+ youth. Let’s reaffirm our mission to end suicide among LGBTQ+ young people as we resolve to be here for the next generation.

Friend, your generosity fuels our work. Please give today.

Thank you for your unwavering support and belief in our mission. Together, we’re creating a world where every LGBTQ+ young person feels safe, supported, and empowered.

Together for Trevor,

Jaymes Black

Chief Executive Officer

P.S. If your special Together for Trevor Day contribution and this email have crossed paths, THANK YOU! We truly appreciate it!

*When $30,000 is raised from generous donors like you, an additional $30,000 will be released by The Atwood Family to support Trevor’s mission. This opportunity lasts until 11:59 PM ET, Tuesday, March 25, 2025.
