"I'm very honored to get this award because The Trevor Project is there at the end of the line with a voice that tells you that you're not alone. It is up to us to somehow make it clear that being different is really fabulous." -Susan Sarandon

The Trevor Hero Award honors Susan Sarandon for being an openly vocal ally for youth and increasing visibility and understanding of LGBTQ community. As an ally for LGBTQ people, Sarandon has supported the freedom to marry as well as funding for HIV/AIDS research and healthcare for patients, and has spoken out about homophobia in the media. 

Trevor Live is an annual event that benefits the life-saving, life-affirming work of The Trevor Project, providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention services to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning (LGBTQ) teens and young adults.
