Help Our Friend Mose in Kenyan Refugee Camp

This is a post for our friend Moise. Moise is Trans. Moise does not know yet if they are male or female, because Moise has not yet been given the opportunity to figure it out for themselves.

They are in a difficult and dangerous situation. Moise is living in a refugee camp with a group of activists who are currently being persecuted and even attacked for their beliefs, about gender and sexuality.

Money is scarce and Moise is struggling to buy food and supplies in the refugee camp currently. They can use any and all help that we can give.

Below is Moise's story in their own words:

Hello friends,

I am Moisse ,a member and an activist of the LGBTIQ refugees in the community of Kakuma Kenya Refugee camp located in the northern Turkana region, looking for support to help the LGBTIQ family and also children .

We are LGBTIQ also living with kids in the refugee camp starving and passing through the homophobic situation.

Unfortunately the environment of the camp is so hostile for us, we are having regular attacks and injuries inflicted upon us .

We desperately need your help in order to survive and thrive in this situation please.

Me as a transgender I moved from my mother country Uganda because I was facing alot of hatred and for me I wasn't ready to change who I am and our president doesn't allow lgbtiq persons in my country .

In Uganda my family was killed by the community members ,I managed to escape death and I had no other option other than joining a camp in Kenya to seek for asylum .

We shall appreciate any hands that will decide to support us please .

Anything you give will be highly appreciated. Evene $5 helps a ton. Thank you. We will be sending proceeds directly to Moise. If you wish to reach out to Moise yourself to donate, click here for their Tumblr link.

Thanks again for anything you can offer!!!! It means a lot!! <3
