"I am incredibly grateful to the Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation for their extraordinary $1million donation to The Trevor Project and everyone at the Atlanta Falcons for their heartfelt support. This donation helps fund counsellor training, enhance volunteer services and ensure our critical programs reach LGBTQ+ youth in their most vulnerable moments. Thank you again to the Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation, this gift will save lives."
"It's always powerful to see an organisation invest not only in the communities around it, but also in the culture it builds internally. Creating space for learning, reflection, and connection like this matters more than people often realise."
Arthur Blank, owner of the Atlanta Falcons, donated $1 million to The Trevor Project through his family foundation. Former NFL player Carl Nassib expressed gratitude for the donation, emphasizing its impact on counselor training and volunteer services for LGBTQ+ youth. Laurette M. from The Trevor Project highlighted the importance of organizations investing in community and culture. This donation represents a significant step towards allyship in the NFL, a league that has faced challenges with LGBTQ+ inclusion, especially with no active players publicly coming out recently.
