now more than ever, please vet gofundmes before you donate.

copy and paste descriptions into google to see if there are scam accounts reusing the same story, check to see if there are any images/updates on the fund with faces. go to the original blog, check if the post asking for help is only an hour old, or even less than that. refrain from donating if all it links to is a PayPal account, without any further confirmation of identity.

it’s horrible to say but it’s never been a better time for scam artists to exploit your generosity, when things seem so dire, and I’ve donated to campaigns before only to realise later that the entire story was stolen from an actual family in need. due diligence might take a few more minutes out of your day but at least you won’t be sending money to an opportunistic scumbag.

for campaigns on tumblr: please check out @/el-shab-hussein's list of verified fundraisers here on tumblr and also @/nabulsi. they both do incredible work at vetting campaigns.

there is also this spreadsheet made by @/nabulsi and @/el-shab-hussein.

other places to find vetted fundraisers are the operation olive branch spreadsheet and also gazafunds.

If there is another transmasc having an existential crisis out there that needs to hear this. You didn't 'take the easy way out' by transitioning, because living as a trans man or a transmasc is not easier than living as a cis woman. There is only one thing you are really and truly escaping when you transition, and it’s the misery of going through the song and dance of pretending you're cis.

survival fund for disabled Black trans couple

(id in alt text)

making this post as my wife and i r two disabled Black trans folks living in TX who are both currently out of work due to disability and other circumstances, and are in need of consistent financial help in order to afford our living expenses and survive. i have the main three apps, a shared ko-fi and patreon, and a registry of household needs and wants (praying the amazon link embeds properly, feel free to dm me if its broken).

if u cant donate, rbing this post (without tags if possible) is the most helpful thing you can do, as i know my situation and have evaluated the options available to me before turning to ebegging. thanks!

havent raised anything yet 😔 still trying to raise $60 to cover meds to manage my gastroparesis among other things. anything helps 🙏🏼

I need to once again ask for you all to help my friends Ahmed and Dina Alanqar and their four young children in Gaza. Unfortunately they've been struggling to contact GFM about issues transferring funds, so they needed to begin a new campaign from scratch.

Ahmed tells me the situation is becoming worse by the day now. Bombs are falling around them and the price of food keeps rising.

When they tried to return to their home they found their childrens clothes were burned and torn in rubble.

Please assist in their continued survival and ensure they have a chance to escape when they can. Donate and share! ♥️

Vetted! 264 on El-Shab-Hussein and Nabulsi's spreadsheet (here)

please donate!!! the situation is becoming more urgent and its a terrible shame GFM is keeping life-saving funds from Gazans. the goal is now $22,000 - we've been able to raise far more before, so let's keep standing by Dina and Ahmed's family!!

I'm headed home for the holidays, so I made this very simplified watered down comic to explain why I got top surgery!

It's obviously much more complex than I could fit into words, let alone a little comic, but I hope it resonates with someone! 🏳️‍⚧️✂️

Happy Trans Day of Visibility!

Here's a comic I made in 2022 about having top surgery! 🏳️‍⚧️
