Adult industry mental health nonprofit Pineapple Support announced today that talent management group Razor Edge Talent has come aboard as a supporter-level sponsor of the organization. In becoming a sponsor, Razor Edge Talent joins over 60 other adult businesses and organizations in committing funds and resources to Pineapple Support.
“I have witnessed firsthand the wonderful things Pineapple Support has been able to do for some very close friends dealing with important issues,” said Daniel Hogue, Co-Founder of Razor Edge Talent. “I, as well as my Partner Bambi Bliss of Razor Edge Talent, am proud to be in a position to finally start to give back a little of what they have done for the community that has been my life for that last 25 years. We look forward to doing more and more as we grow!”
“As a transgender performer, I truly believe in supporting one another through our experiences and knowledge,” said Bambi Bliss, Co-Founder of Razor Edge Talent. “I have gained immense knowledge and a deeper understanding of myself through similar programs. Pineapple Support is a safe space for our community, that we at Razor Edge Talent will always support.”
Pineapple Support was founded by British performer Leya Tanit in 2018, after a string of tragic losses in the adult industry of performers suffering depression and other mental illnesses. The organization, a qualified 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization in the United States, reports that it has “connected over 5,000 adult performers to mental health services, including free and low-cost therapy, counseling, and emotional support.”
In the announcement, Tanit thanked Razor Edge Talent and its entire team for their “generosity and support.”
“It’s important to have the support of talent management organizations like Razor Edge Talent, that work directly with performers,” Tanit said. “The more performers that know where and how to access mental health services, the stronger our entire community is as a result. Thanks to all our sponsors, we can continue to add to our jam-packed schedule of events this year, as well as meet the ever-increasing demand for our services.”
