The Trevor Project And Global Queer Network, Revry, Announce #ShareTheLove Initiative Revry, the premiere queer global digital entertainment network featuring originals, narrative and documentary films, digital series, shorts, podcasts, music and more...was thrilled to partner with The Trevor Project and broadcast last years TrevorLive 2017 honoring Tom Ford and Kristin Chenoweth. Now, Revry is doubling down on that relationship and its commitment to making a difference for queer youth through a joint "#ShareTheLove" initiative. Revry will donate half of all annual subscription fees in the months of February and March to The Trevor Project's global initiative TrevorSpace.org.

"The Trevor Project is honored to be 'Sharing The Love' with Revry these next two months," said The Trevor Project's Chief Growth Officer, Calvin Stowell. "Revry's commitment to help support TrevorSpace.org, the largest LGBTQ safe space online, will help us continue growing that platform so that every young LGBTQ person in the world has an outlet where they can safely be their true selves. It is clear Revry is an innovator in sharing queer digital media globally - and that kind of outreach with our stories helps bring not only more awareness, but further acceptance to places where our queer brethren need it the most. We are grateful to have the support of Revry's initiative to donate funds to TrevorSpace.org so that we can continue our mission to reach and save the lives of our LGBTQ family internationally."

Revry's CEO, Damian Pelliccione, wants to make sure that queer youth around the world not only see themselves represented through stories and music, but have an opportunity to receive vital support when they are at their most fragile. "TrevorSpace is one of our communities greatest global 'first responders' and nothing is more important than letting our youth know they are loved and have a safe space to be themselves no matter what culture they live in. We have to share what we have, and I hope that people of all generations will join us to 'Share The Love' these next two months with this win-win initiative - getting fabulous, international queer content while creating a safe place and resource for our younger generations."

The mission of The Trevor Project is to end suicide among gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and questioning young people. Unlike the Trevor Lifeline, TrevorText, or TrevorChat, TrevorSpace is not a crisis INTERVENTION tool, but rather an international social media site giving LGBTQ youth from all over the world a safe place to connect with each other and find support among their peers. LGBTQ youth ages 13 through 24 and their friends and allies can create personal profiles and connect with other young people, as well as find resources within their communities. TrevorSpace is carefully monitored by administrators designated by The Trevor Project to ensure all content is age appropriate, youth-friendly and factual. This ensures the site provides the safest space possible for its young members, and that TrevorSpace remains a safe space for all LGBTQ people.
