Dance-music icon Kristine W will appear as the special guest performer at Love Reverberates' LIGHT THE WAY – A Gathering to Support The Trevor Project, taking place Sunday, December 14, 2025, at The Canyon Club in Agoura Hills. Doors open at 3:00 p.m., with the event scheduled from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. Hosted by acclaimed actor and performer Missi Pyle, the uplifting afternoon will also feature performances by The Voice Season 10 winner Alisan Porter, Broadway and television star Emma Hunton, and Tony-nominated actor Kevin Chamberlin, known to millions from Disney’s Jessie. Kristine W will perform four songs, including her fan-favorite hit “I’ll Be Your Light.”
Love Reverberates’ mission centers on fostering genuine connection through kindness, shared stories, and meaningful support. Research consistently shows that connection is among the most powerful influences on mental health. The organization believes deeply in the ripple effect of compassion—how one simple act of listening, supporting, or showing up for another person can spread outward and transform lives. Light the Way was created to offer exactly that: a safe, affirming space where community members can come together to celebrate resilience, belonging, and the healing power of being truly seen.
“Our hope is that someone who may be struggling walks into this event and feels enough love and support to believe there is something worth holding on for,” says Kristine W. “That moment of connection could be the spark that helps someone choose to stay, and that’s the light we want to share.”
All proceeds from Light the Way will benefit The Trevor Project, the nation’s leading suicide prevention and crisis intervention organization for LGBTQ+ young people. The Trevor Project provides 24/7 support through phone, text, and chat services, along with critical educational and advocacy efforts designed to help LGBTQ+ youth feel safe, affirmed, and valued.
The inclusion of Kristine W brings an especially meaningful dimension to the event. With 17 Billboard Dance Club Songs No. 1 hits, she is one of the most successful artists in the history of the genre. Her music, including the soaring, emotional anthem “I’ll Be Your Light,” has long resonated deeply with LGBTQ+ audiences. Throughout her decades-long career, she has performed at Pride celebrations, partnered with LGBTQ+ charities, and used her platform to inspire empowerment and self-acceptance. Her appearance at Light the Way underscores the event’s message that music is a powerful force for hope and connection.
Light the Way invites attendees to immerse themselves in an afternoon of music, storytelling, and community. It is an environment designed to remind LGBTQ+ youth and allies that no one is alone, and that there is always a place where understanding and support can be found. Through heartfelt performances and shared moments of reflection, the event seeks to strengthen the bonds that hold communities together and highlight the importance of compassion in everyday life.
