By donating a dollar to the Trevor Project this week at lunch, the GSA and Empowerment Club gave a ticket good for a piece of duct tape to help tape Mr. Joyal to the wall on Friday. Congrats to the Empowerment Club and GSA on a joint effort to support the Trevor Project, a nonprofit organization that focuses on suicide prevention and crisis intervention for LGBTQ+ youth.
