Today I am sharing a very important video that is about something that I participated in a few months ago! Now I have been a avid watcher of Tyler Oakley's videos for quite a few years now and when I saw a video about how he, for his birthday would be starting a fundraiser for a organization called The Trevor Project.
If you are not familiar with what The Trevor Project is, it is an organization that focuses on helping prevent suicide in LGBTQ youth by providing sources and a 24/7 hotline to those who need someone to talk to. So Tyler Oakley first set goal amount was reached and by the end of his fundraising he was able to raise more than $500,000. I did donate to this fundraiser because anybody no matter who they choose to love or who they are should be treated with the respect that everyone deserves. I wasn't able to donate much because I was in school at the time and wasn't working, but I was able to donate $25 dollars which isn't but knowing that I could have maybe had a hand in helping someone choose to live, rather than end their life.
So all in all this is a video that showcases what Tyler Oakley was able achieve with the help of his people. I was lucky enough to be a part of this and I wanted to share this with all of you to make you aware of this fantastic foundation and the amazing things that someone can do to help people.
For making my donation I did get a postcard which makes the fact that I could have helped someone so much more real and it is something that I will hold onto for the rest of my life. If you wan to know more about you can visit The Trevor Project or ask me and I can find out for you!
