Lady Gaga was honored for her tireless efforts toward LGBT youth at The Trevor Project's 2011 Trevor Live event at The Hollywood Palladium Sunday.

The star-studded event was a benefit aimed to provide expanded crisis intervention and suicide prevention services for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning youth.

Gaga was presented with the honor by the family of Jamey Rodemeyer, the Buffalo, New York teenager who killed himself in September after enduring constant harassment from schoolyard bullies over his sexuality. Rodemeyer, a huge fan of the Born This Way singer, gained prominence earlier this year after posing a viral video discussing his struggles with his peers.
