Help Disabled Trans Man with Survival Funds
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Leo, and I am a chronically ill/fatigued/Disabled trans man living with MS—a degenerative neurological disease which impacts my ability to stand, walk, focus, and speak, and makes me extremely sensitive to heat. After also getting (long) COVID in January, I have been unable to work as much as I need to in order to pay my bills and pay for my relocation into less expensive housing.
I am actively searching and applying for a new job that will be easier on my body, but unfortunately have not received any offers despite submitting hundreds of applications over the past year.
The impacts on my body from COVID, my existing disabilities, and surviving a recent sexual assault have also exacerbated my depression and mental health issues, making digging myself out of these circumstances and asking for help increasingly difficult.
As a trans person living with an incurable & degenerative disease, it has also been challenging to access resources during an ongoing pandemic with ever-decreasing public precautions. All this has meant I need to ask for increased community support in order to continue to survive.
Any funds you give will go towards paying for my housing, food & pet food for my emotional support dog Kya, my car payment, and credit card debt accumulated as a result of being sick & needing to survive.
I would be so grateful for anything you're able to give. Thank you!
