Utaku's Trade Caravan – Pride Month Promotion: 10% of Sales to The Trevor Project
Hey TD community!
I wanted to share something a little more personal than my usual token listings.
Starting now through the end of June,
10% of all sales from
Utaku's Trade Caravan
will be donated to
The Trevor Project
, the leading organization providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention support for LGBTQ+ youth.
There are two reasons this matters to me right now.
The first is Pride Month, a time to celebrate, but also a time to remember that for a lot of young people in the queer community, life is genuinely hard and support systems matter enormously.
The second is personal. Someone close to me, someone I love deeply, is part of the queer community and has had a really difficult year. I've watched firsthand how much the existence of organizations like The Trevor Project means to struggling youth and their families. These aren't abstract statistics. These are real kids.
Which brings me to something I feel I have to say plainly:
the recent reductions in federal funding for LGBTQ+ youth support services are, in my view, morally indefensible. Pulling the safety net out from under the most vulnerable young people, kids who are already fighting hard just to feel okay, is wrong. Full stop. This hits home for me in ways I won't fully detail here, but trust me when I say it does.
So I'm doing what I can. If you've been eyeing any tokens, trade goods, or transmute ingredients,
now's a great time to grab them, and you'll be helping a cause that genuinely saves lives. Head over to
utakustradecaravan.com
to browse what's available.
If you want to donate directly to The Trevor Project regardless of a purchase, you can do so at
thetrevorproject.org
.
Thank you for being a community that I'm proud to be part of. See you in the dungeon. 🏳️🌈
