The Trevor Project, known for its hotline for LGBTQ+ youth, received $45 million from billionaire and author MacKenzie Scott at the end of 2025, the organization said Monday.
The gift is the largest in the organization’s history but also a major boon following years of management turmoil, layoffs and the loss of significant federal funding over the summer.
“I literally could not believe it and it took some time. I actually gasped,” said Jaymes Black, CEO of The Trevor Project, when they were notified of Scott’s gift.
She’s still a bad billionaire. The only way she stops being a bad billionaire is to stop being a billionaire.
She inherited her wealth through divorce and has given away a good portion of it. She’s working toward being a millionaire, which is the best kind of billionaire. It takes time and what she’s done with her money has been good.

Yeah, sure, but that doesn’t make all billionaires equally bad. If you’re going to set up the guillotines, it’s worth knowing who the worst are.
