About this Event
In honor of PRIDE month, Humanity Heroes will be donating all proceeds to support homeless LBTQ youth. You can join our cause through our Fresh Brothers x Humanity Heroes pizza campaign, where we’ll match every order you place at Fresh Brothers’ West Hollywood location dollar-for-dollar. The fundraiser takes place June 16.
A recent study polled more than 350 runaway and homeless providers throughout the United States to identify the top four causes of homelessness among LGBT youth. They include: (1) family rejection resulting from sexual orientation or gender identity; (2) physical, emotional, or sexual abuse; (3) aging out of the foster care system; and (4) financial and emotional neglect.
Some startling facts about LGBTQ youth experiencing homelessness:
- LGBTQ youth comprise 40% of all youth experiencing homelessness, while they are just 7% of the total youth population in the U.S.
- 62% of LGBTQ youth report being physically harmed while experiencing homelessness.
- 8% of transgendered adults have experienced homelessness in the past year.
