Help Create a Joyful Christmas for Transgender Families

Donation protected


The Feminist Inclusion Leadership Center (FILC) (https://filcenter.org) in Uganda is organizing a vital Christmas Family Gathering for 30 transgender and non-binary individuals who face isolation during the holidays. Many have been disowned by their families or face rejection, particularly those undergoing hormone therapy.

FILC has secured $500 from the Black Trans Travel Fund for transportation. They need $1,200 to cover the remaining costs for meals, venue, drinks, security, and gifts. This gathering will provide shared meals, a campfire, music, mental health support, and most importantly - a chance to celebrate community together.

I am coordinating this fundraiser from Seattle, WA and I will transfer 100% of donations (minus GoFundMe Fee) to FLIC's bank account via international wire transfer.

Your support will help create a space of belonging and joy during what can be an especially challenging time of year.



Please join us in making this holiday season brighter for our transgender and non-binary family in Uganda. Every contribution helps build a more inclusive world where everyone can celebrate with their chosen family.
