On July 17, the 988 Lifeline officially ended its specialized services for LGBTQ+ young people due to federal budget cuts. This wasn’t just a policy change—it was a painful act of erasure, one that left many feeling unseen in moments when support is needed most.

We want LGBTQ+ young people to know this: you are seen, you are valued, and you are never alone.

At The Trevor Project, our trained crisis counselors are still here—24/7/365—to support and hold every young person who needs us. We are still here. Still showing up. Still saving lives.

While this news is heavy, it's also a reminder of why representation, connection, and joy matter so deeply. Keep reading for stories and moments that affirm, uplift, and continue the fight for a safer, more inclusive world for LGBTQ+ young people.

** H&M Celebrates the Infinite Love of Chosen Families
------------------------------------------------------------

This year, H&M Americas reaffirms its year-round dedication to the LGBTQ+ community with the continuation of its annual Pride campaign celebrating chosen families, which play an essential role for many people in the LGBTQ+ community. The campaign, launching in stores and online across the region under the tagline 'Chosen Family, Infinite Love' ([link removed]) , reinforces H&M's long-standing advocacy for the LGBTQ+ community.

As a long-time advocate for the community globally, H&M continues its support through donations to The Trevor Project — marking the 6th consecutive year in the US and 2nd year in Mexico — to further their mission to end LGBTQ+ youth suicide. Since the partnership's inception, H&M has donated over $1 million to The Trevor Project's life-saving mission through an annual matching campaign. This year’s campaign ran from June 11 – 15.

This year marks a meaningful milestone in our longstanding partnership with our friends at Abercrombie & Fitch — a brand that consistently uplifts and celebrates the LGBTQ+ community, not just during Pride, but all year long. Their 2025 gender-inclusive Pride Collection is a vibrant tribute to the joy, strength, and resilience of the LGBTQ+ community. The collection showcases Abercrombie’s ongoing dedication to uplifting and celebrating LGBTQ+ identities every day.

With this year’s contribution, Abercrombie & Fitch Co. and their incredible customers have helped raise more than $5 million in support of The Trevor Project throughout the history of our partnership. These funds directly support our life-saving work in crisis intervention and suicide prevention for LGBTQ+ young people. Thanks to Abercrombie & Fitch’s 2024 round-up campaign, trained Trevor counselors were able to spend countless hours providing care and connection to those who needed it most.
