Jason & deMarco launch S.A.F.E

Two of my favorite singers are also two amazing men with big hearts. Jason & deMarco have launched a non-profit in Houston, Texas called S.A.F.E. From their website:

"S.A.F.E. is dedicated to creating a 'Safe, Affirming, Family Environment" for throwaway youth, young adults and Seniors, particularly those GLBTQ (Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender and Questioning)."

"Throwaway youth" is a term that brings me to tears. The idea that a parent could simply throw their LGBT child out the door is unimaginable to me. And it is why I believe in S.A.F.E. with all my heart.

Please visit the web link above and join in the discussion. If you are able to donate to the cause you will find instructions on the home page. S.A.F.E. has set a goal to lease a house in the Montrose area of Houston by 2011. They have a major donor that has pledged to match all donations until December 31st, 2010.


Through their music, Jason and diMarco spread the message of love and acceptance for all. Through their non-profit they are putting action to that message. Please visit their web site and join in the fight to protect our LGBT youth for they are our future.
