<div>Friends of Ruby is a nonprofit center supporting 2SLGBTQIA+ youth in Toronto, Canada. They help by providing free counselling, housing, and social services to youth (aged 16-29).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>According to <a href="https://www.thetrevorproject.org/survey-2024/#mental-health-suicide-risk" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">the Trevor Project</a>, "More than 1 in 10 (12%) LGBTQ+ young people attempted suicide in the past year."
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>"LGBTQ+ young people are not inherently prone to higher suicide risk because of their sexual orientation or gender identity. Rather, they are placed at higher risk because of how they are mistreated and stigmatized in society."
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>These programs and foundations that help strengthen and give support to our 2SLGBTQIA+ are so unbelievably important. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So far, Swifties have helped raise over $55,000 for two charitable foundations. If you are able to, please consider helping support the 2SLGBTQIA+ youth in Toronto.

Swifties for Coburn Place: Survivors of Domestic Violence

<div>On October 30, 2024, flash floods devastated Valencia and surrounding areas, claiming over 200 lives and leaving many communities in ruins. As the region faced historic rainfall and river overflows, the powerful storm tore through homes, damaged infrastructure, and displaced thousands, with entire neighborhoods submerged in muddy waters. The ongoing crisis has left many families without basic necessities and has severely impacted local resources.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This fundraiser, organized for BANCO DE ALIMENTOS DE VALENCIA, aims to provide immediate relief to affected residents and support long-term recovery efforts. Donations will go toward essential supplies like food, water, clothing, and hygiene kits, as well as rebuilding initiatives to restore the lives of those impacted by this tragedy. Join us in standing with Valencia during this time of need, and help bring relief and hope to the community.
