    I don’t want to sound desperate, but I feel like so many of you don’t care or have stopped caring about the struggles of LGBTQ refugees in East Africa.

    We are a group of queer refugees living in a very hostile refugee camp. Every day, we fight to survive amidst starvation, a lack of clean water, and the constant threat of disease. Some of us are battling malaria and HIV without access to proper medication. Our stories are heartbreaking, but they barely reach the world.

    It has now been 4 days since we last received a donation. Many of us are running out of food, and clean drinking water is a luxury we can only dream of. Some members of our community, including children, are dangerously malnourished. We live with the reality of illnesses that could be prevented if we had access to basic healthcare.

    What will it take for the world to care about us? As LGBTQ refugees, we have been silenced, abandoned, and persecuted, but we refuse to lose hope. We need your support to make it through another day.

    Please, if you’re reading this, consider donating to help us. Your contributions will go directly toward food, clean water, and essential medication. Every little bit helps. If you cannot donate, reblog this post and spread the word. Your kindness and generosity can save lives.

    The very fact that we are still here, holding on, is a testament to our resilience. But we can’t do this alone.

    Please, share, reblog, and if you’re able, donate. Together, we can bring hope and relief to a community that has been forgotten by the world.
