Futuro Transgenérico to have its own space

Donation protected
Futuro Transgenérico is a travesti-centered organization based in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Marlene Wayar and Susy Shock are two of its leaders. They currently serve as president and secretary of the organization respectively. Futuro Transgenérico has been at the forefront of key struggles for the visibility, memory, and civil, social, and economic rights of the travesti/trans population both in Argentina and Latin America. For more info on the organization, scroll all the way down.

In July of this year, a philanthropist granted legal possession of a property to Futuro Transgenérico for a ten-year term. This is a unique and once in a lifetime opportunity. Rehabbing this property to serve as a multi-use headquarters would allow Futuro Transgenérico to leap into a new vibrant cycle. It would further their feminist, trans-inclusive, and intersectional grassroots work. The rise of an extremist far-right, however, looms upon the country. They need all the support that co-inspirators, near and far, could offer them at this time.

The property whose possession they have been granted needs major repairs to bring it up to code. Futuro Transgenérico has partnered with professionals who are volunteering their time and labor. The project’s overall budget is roughly $7,000 (seven thousand dollars). They are now crowdfunding for the last $2,500 (two thousand and five hundred dollars) to meet the overall budget’s goal.

Futuro Transgenérico turns to you for support. We believe that your donation will make us realize this unique opportunity, establishing a multi-use social-justice focused building. It would be an honor for us to receive your support. There are no small or large amounts. Any amount gets us closer to our goal.

More information on Futuro Transgenérico
We have three programmatic priorities, (a) trans culture and memory, (b) travesti/trans seniors, and (c) travesti/trans childhood and youth. Over twenty years, we have designed, created, and executed multi-year and path-breaking projects and activities. We literally work out of kitchens and patios (indoor gardens). With logistical support from community partners, we run projects as wide-ranging as legislative activism coalitions, social justice communication workshops, radio shows, print and digital media rooms, performing arts pods, and community-based participatory research clusters.
