Ways To Help: The Trevor Project

There are many organizations that exist solely to raise awareness and help those struggling with their mental health. To Write Love On Her Arms is one of course. If I were to make a list of every single one, it would take quite some time, but I did want to point out one that I became familiar with over the last year.

The Trevor Project is the leading national organization providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention services to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) young people ages 13-24. One thing I really like about this organization is that they have a 24/7 hotline. So literally whenever someone may need help, counselors are there.

I was introduce to The Trevor Project through YouTuber, Tyler Oakley. For the past few years for his birthday, he has asked his subscribers to donate to the foundation instead of sending him fan mail and/or gifts. This year he was able to raise over $500,000. There's something really great about seeing someone who knows they have the ability to reach a lot of people and is able to take advantage of that in a positive way.

I encourage you to check our their website HERE to read some more about them and what they do. If you can't donate but still want to help, SHARE! Post about it, talk about it with your friends and family, etc. Just starting that conversation can reach so many people!
