50 Futures. One Pride.

🌈 This Pride season, we're investing in 50 young LGBTQ+ futures.
🌈 It's called Future Perfect 50, or “FP50” for short. 

For $2,500, you can give one young queer person a full year in our songwriting, creative writing, podcasting, or residency programs. 

When the world is hostile to who they are, we give young people the tools to write themselves into the future. We already serve 400+ queer youth a year. Many arrive as the only queer voice in their hometown. They leave as published authors, recording artists, and performers on real stages.

We’re looking for 50 founders before July 31. Will you say yes? 

🌸 $2,500: Support the future of 1 young LGBTQ+ person at FPP
🌸 $1,000: Help support our core programs
🌸 $500: month of mentorship for 1 young artist
🌱 Monthly Supporter: $50 or $100 a month helps sustain a young artist year-round.

Our Vision
The Future Perfect Project envisions a world where every young person feels safe, seen, and celebrated in their home and community. We believe that the self-expression of LGBTQIA+ Youth is a declaration of a better future for us all.

Our Mission
To amplify LGBTQIA+ young voices, we produce and facilitate creative workshops, media projects, and live performances of original work created by and about the current generation of LGBTQIA+ youth. 

Our Story
The Future Perfect Project is a national arts initiative designed to support LGBTQ+ youth in becoming the voice of tomorrow. Founded by Celeste Lecesne (co-founder of The Trevor Project) and Ryan Amador (singer/songwriter), FPP began in 2017 by traveling the country and offering true storytelling and songwriting workshops to teens in high schools and LGBTQIA+ Youth Centers. What they witnessed was a paradigm shift in the minds and hearts of young people - unlike previous generations, this current generation of queer youth is not interested in fitting into a world in danger of collapsing and disappearing altogether. They want something that’s never been. The kind of change they’re calling for requires us all to take a breathtaking leap into the who-knows-what of human consciousness. We believe that if the public was familiar with the young hearts of queer young people, they would love them, embrace them and recognize them as ambassadors of a more perfect future.

With this in mind, we offer online & in-person creative writing, music, and media production workshops that center queerness and empower young people to express their vision of a better future for us all.
