The Trevor Project is the largest suicide prevention and mental health organization for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer & questioning (LGBTQ) young people. The Trevor Project offers a suite of 24/7 crisis intervention and suicide prevention programs, including TrevorLifeline, TrevorText, and TrevorChat as well as the world's largest safe space social networking site for LGBTQ youth, TrevorSpace. Trevor also operates an education program with resources for youth-serving adults and organizations, an advocacy department fighting for pro-LGBTQ legislation and against anti-LGBTQ rhetoric/policy positions, and a research team to discover the most effective means to help young LGBTQ people in crisis and end suicide. If you or someone you know is feeling hopeless or suicidal, our trained crisis counselors are available 24/7 at 1-866-488-7386, via chat TheTrevorProject.org/Help, or by texting 678678.

Story

Thank you so much for coming to #freevlds8's charity page. All proceeds will be going directly to The Trevor Project, a charity whose reputation and work is unparalleled in the LGBT+ community. The work that The Trevor Project does for at-risk and suicidal LGBT+ youth is something that deeply touches our hearts, and we wish to help contribute to the wonderful work it does. 

Every person deserves to be heard, and The Trevor Project makes sure that the most vulnerable have an ear when they need it the most.

Why are we running this charity drive?

Fans of the animated television show "Voltron: Legendary Defender"  have opted to voice our dissatisfaction in regards to the clear executive meddling and poorly-edited series finale. We want to make our voices heard, but we also want to bring positivity from such an incredibly negative experience.

Thousands of fans have come together to sign a petition calling for the original season, but we wanted to take it one step further—we want to show that when fandom raises its voice we can do anything.

If you would like to sign the petition, you can find it here: https://www.change.org/p/dreamworks-voltron-season-8-release-the-original-the-showrunners-wanted?signed=true

Now, in the words of our very much beloved LGBT+ icon, Takashi Shirogane:

Go. Be great.
