FUNDRAISING FOR THE CRISIS SHELTER FOR TRANSGENDER PEOPLE
Center T helps transgender people in Russia and those in exile in other countries.
The Russian government persecutes LGBT people by making xenophobia its state policy. You can read the stories of hate crime victims here. Often, transgender people are forced to urgently flee Russia because of state persecution or domestic violence.
In January 2024, we opened a shelter in Yerevan, since transgender people fleeing Russia often end up in Armenia without a livelihood or acquaintances in the country. In addition to providing housing, we work with our shelter residents on a plan to get out of the crisis and, if necessary, provide assistance from a psychologist, psychiatrist, as well as necessary medications and basic food products.
Unfortunately, we do not have funding for the project for the upcoming month of August. And we urgently need to open a collection to keep the shelter operating.
The collection goal is 2,175 euros. This amount includes rent for a three-room apartment (shelter capacity is up to 6 people at a time), utilities, household chemicals, basic food and medicine for those who are unable to afford those costs. It also includes the support of the project by a psychologist and coordinator.
We really need your help. Support us — tell your friends about this collection.
