Nice News’ June 2023 Cause of the Month

June marks the start of Pride month, making now the perfect time to contribute to an organization that’s helping to make the world a better place for the LGBTQ+ community. Nice News’ June Cause of the Month is The Trevor Project, a nonprofit that provides suicide prevention and crisis intervention services for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning young people.

The organization was founded in 1998 as the Trevor Lifeline, the first national crisis intervention and suicide prevention lifeline for LGBTQ+ youth. The hotline is still in operation — helping hundreds of thousands over the years — but the Trevor Project has also expanded, pursuing its goal to end suicide in the queer community through crisis services, peer support, education initiatives, research, and advocacy.

One hundred percent of the proceeds from this fundraiser will go directly to Trevor and its mission to create a world where all LGBTQ+ people see a bright future for themselves.

Beyond donating, you can support this important endeavor by reading more about the organization’s work, accessing resources on everything from understanding sexuality to learning how to be a strong ally, or signing up to become a volunteer for the call, text, and chat lifelines.
