The Trevor Project - Awards

Awards

The Trevor Project uses annual events to honor individuals and businesses that have been leaders in supporting LGBT rights and advocated against bullying and hate crimes. In 1998, they held the first Cracked Xmas in Los Angeles. In 2001, a New York City-based annual event was added using entertainers to raise financial resources for the organization. As of 2009, Cracked Xmas was the group's largest annual fundraiser.
