Hey all, I was forced to leave high school and my home behind in early 2023 as a minor due to severe transphobia and abuse from family. After escaping, I was taken in by someone who was essentially exploiting my situation.
Eventually I found safety with a QTPOC household who helped me secure longer term housing.
This fundraiser would help me afford things such as rent, food, medical expenses and gender affirming care.
I’m currently saving up for gender affirming surgery as well as a necessary dental procedure.
Please consider supporting or sharing if you’re able to, it truly makes a difference and would mean a lot to me!

Hello world, hope this message finds you well. My name is Melvin a Ugandan gay man trying hard to survive unimaginable challenges and persecution, I am writing to share my story with you in the hopes of seeking assistance.
I've been a refugee for over 4 years, seeking safety and protection. Unfortunately, my journey has been marked by frustrating delays and disappointing refusals within the asylum system.
I fled my home country because I feared for my life after being physically attacked and threatened with death and arrest due to my sexual preferences and that it's a crime to be a gay in Uganda.
I sought refuge in Kenya but unfortunately, the government and local authorities were unwilling to provide aid to people in my situation. The trauma and hardships I faced in my home country only continued in this new land. I got some assistance and managed to make it to Kalobeyi refugee camp in the north western Turkana region but while there I met other Igbt refugees who fled from Uganda and other East African countries. It was very difficult for me to stay in the camp because of the miserable situation upon queer refugees we had to go through daily.
Desperate for a better life and future, I made the difficult decision to travel to Sudan where I am currently residing. However, I am unable to access basic necessities like food, medical care and other services. Here also I was able to find 250 Igbt refugees but we are living in fear and hiding from the government because it is highly prohibited to be an LGBTQ+ individual in this country.
Upon arrival at the camp, I shared the little resources I had with fellow refugees, demonstrating my willingness to help.Recognizing my leadership potential, I was appointed as a leader for a group of 15 refugees, comprising men, women and children.
In this role l've been responsible for distributing scarce resources, and providing emotional support to my fellow refugees. Despite the difficulties, l've remained committed to helping my community and advocating for our needs.
However, our situation is critical. We're unable to access basic needs like food. We're struggling to survive, If you're able to help us, please do so.
Your kindness would be a lifesaver to us. We're grateful for any help, no matter how small
Thank you for taking the time to read my story and considering our plea.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
I'm sharing my story to raise awareness about the challenges faced by refugees like me. We need a fair, efficient, and compassionate asylum process.
Please consider donating or sharing my story with your friends and family

I hate this so much! I found out trump won from my mom sending me messages happily saying he won… (I don’t support trump and a part of the LGBTQ+ but have to hide deep in the closet). Hate hate hate this so much!
