| | Dan Radcliffe makes major donation to Get Connected
Last month we told you about Dan Radcliffe's large donation to support The Trevor Project, a suicide hotline for LGBTQ teens in the U.S.
Dan has made another significant donation, this time to U.K. hotline, Get Connected, for people under 25 who have a problem but do not know where to find help.
According to Dan: Quote:
I am delighted to pledge my support for Get Connected, and mark their 10th anniversary by becoming their first Best Friend. The free confidential helpline finding young people help for any problem is a vital and unique service. We live in a world that is so full of choice and information; it is often impossible to know where to turn or what to do.
Get Connected is there for young people in need of help no matter what the issue, from eating disorders to abuse, homelessness to pregnancy. I see Get Connected as much more than just a gateway for information; it is a friend to thousands of young people across the UK.
I also support The Trevor Project, which is America's leading national organisation focused on crisis and suicide prevention efforts among lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning (LGBTQ) youth. As with Trevor, I hope that my support can raise the visibility of Get Connected.
The trained volunteers at Get Connected field 70,000 calls each year, giving each young person the emotional support and information they need to choose the best option from the thousands of services available in the UK. A further addition to the service, WebHelp 24/7 for online self-help, was launched this week. |

I live in the UK but I’ve never heard of Get Connected before, hopefully he’ll help raise its profile.

He is soooooo sweet and understanding. It's so great he is helping all these people out there. You don't find many 20 year olds who really think about the world or its problems. Its a pleasure to see he is spending his money on such causes rather than finding pics of him drunk in some pub!!!

I think its really great of him to support charities like this one and the Trevor Project.
Lets hope the money helps to make a difference to young men and women in trouble and that the associated press attention will raise the charities profile.

He is so mature and understanding. Some adult actors and actresses need to learn from Daniel and contribute to such useful projects instead of getting hyped up and arragont for their own popularity. Daniel, we all love you.
