In another new interview with MTV, Daniel Radcliffe talks about his involvement in The Trevor Project; a nonprofit organization offers 24/7 round the clock support for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning youths.

“It’s something I’ve always been quite passionate about. Because I grew up around gay men, it was always a natural thing to me. It was never something I ever gave a second thought to.” He admits growing up, he didn’t understand how some people could be so ignorant. “Some are gay, some are straight — didn’t make any difference to me. When I went to my second school, I heard terms like ‘puff’ and ‘homo’ getting thrown around. It never occurred to me that some people might have a problem with it.

“The Trevor Project is the only nationwide around-the-clock crisis- and suicide-prevention help line [of its kind],” Radcliffe said of the cause. “[It’s designed] for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and questioning youth. There will also soon be a ‘Trevor’ iPhone application.”

Though many stars in Hollywood support causes that they can relate to on a personal level, Radcliffe doesn’t feel that is a necessity. When asked why he chose to support The Trevor Project, his response is: You don’t have to be gay to be a supporter — you just have to be human.
