** Hi
Friend of Trevor,
------------------------------------------------------------
I grew up in San Juan, Puerto Rico, in the 1970s. As a LGBTQ young person, I had no idea how to navigate my journey. It was hard. I wish there was something like The Trevor Project when I was 18.
That’s one of the key reasons why I work at Trevor as its Chief Operating Officer (COO). I know what it’s like to have no one to say, “Hey, you're not the only one. There's other people like you.”
It's truly an honor and a privilege to bring everything I've learned in my 25-year career with nonprofit organizations to Trevor. Whatever your reason is for supporting Trevor, I ask you to think of it today and make a gift to power our crisis intervention and suicide prevention services. Your generosity is life-saving!

As COO, one of my responsibilities is helping Trevor use our resources in the best way so that we can be just a call, text, or chat away from every LGBTQ young person who reaches out for help. And with the end of our fiscal year in two days, I’m making sure we’re on solid financial ground to achieve all we want to accomplish in the months ahead.

One of our goals that I am most excited about is taking Trevor global — and in the next few months, we will begin working in Mexico! Your gift today will be a lifeline to the LGBTQ young people here in the U.S. — as well as the approximately 745,000 children, teenagers, and young Mexican adults we estimate are facing mental health challenges because of their LGBTQ identities.

Growing up, I had a wonderful life on a beautiful island, and I'm very proud of my ethnic identity. But it was hard coming out in Puerto Rico. Even now, decades later, LGBTQ young people in Latin American cultures face significant, unique challenges compared to those from the Global North — including higher rates of poverty, violence, and homelessness. I know from personal experience how needed Trevor’s services are around the world, and so I’m proud to be a part of this special effort to save more young LGBTQ lives.
MAKE A LOVING, LIFE-SAVING GIFT ([link removed])
I hope you share that pride,
friend,
because support from our community — kind, compassionate people like you — makes everything Trevor does possible. Please reaffirm your commitment to LGBTQ young people by making your best contribution right now. ([link removed])
With gratitude and in partnership,
Carlos Carrazana
