2014 - 2019

• In 2014, while Blake was still in high school. Blake decided that he wanted to create a organization for the community. Even though when Blake came out of the closet in 2013 to most of his family, and his family accepted him and supported him, he wanted to create an organization that would provide support for people who wasn't as lucky, and didn't have the support like he did. At first, the organization was simply just a Facebook page and subreddit on Reddit. This is still where our presence is mostly to this day. The facebook page was mostly made up of Blake's friends and family who supported him. Blake's vision was to create an organization that can provide a safe space and environment for members of the LGBTQ community, and to provide support and resources to those people that needed that support, and resources.
