Today Nina (@humbleone666) has contacted me because she really needs help with her campaign.
She has been with her current fundraiser for almost a month, but got only 323 pounds out of her 10,000 pound goal!
This won't do, Nina urgently needs donations! She is a Ugandan trans woman, and had to not only flee her home country due to its homophobic and transphobic laws, but also has to live in Kakuma Refugee Camp in Kenya, where many of the basic needs of life are nowhere to be seen or extremely hard to get!
This is her campaign link. Please donate, even if only a little, and please share to someone who can if you can't, because every donation counts!
Kayemba reached out to me. They haven't had much progress with their fundraiser. <3 Here is him speaking about what has led to this situation.
VETTED!
So far...
We thank anyone who takes the time to donate and share this campaign!
$13,900/$25,000
This is a community of LGBTQ+ refugees who are suffering. Recently, some of our members have been jailed for fighting back against people stealing their shelters at night, and they were tortured in lock up. Cases involving refugees, especially LGBTQ+ people, are often ignored or met with violence.
They are deep in the desert surviving on tea leaves and hot water, porridge for the kids, breastfeeding mothers and those who are HIV positive.
Donations will go towards stockpiling food, paying for hospital bills, negotiating with officers and setting up shelters.

I can't resist the hunger. My stomach hurts from hunger. You don't care about me. You don't think about helping me. Your donation enables me to buy food. Help me as much as you can so that I can get food.

Hello everyone! I'm Vivian [legal name is Abola], a transgender woman refugee, currently living in Gorom refugee camp in South Sudan with other LGBTQ refugees and asylum seekers from Uganda, DRC, Rwanda, Burundi, and Ethiopia. All of us were previously residing in Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya. 🌈
When I first came out as a queer person in my home country, Uganda, I faced a lot of discrimination, arbitrary arrests and assaults not only from law enforcement officers but also from members in my community including my friends and relatives. The dislike and homophobia was so intense that even my relatives and friends disowned and ostracized me. 🌈
As a result of the persecution (arbitrary arrests and assaults), discrimination, and the draconian homophobic laws, I fled Uganda to Kenya in 2021 and claimed asylum; I filed my asylum case with the UNHCR (the United Nations Refugee Agency) and the Government of Kenya. The Government of Kenya reserves the mandate of conducting Refugee Status Determination and granting refugee status to asylum seekers. 🌈
Unfortunately the Government of Kenya refused to grant me and other queer refugees, a Refugee Status Determination (RSD) interview because they didn't want to grant refugee status and thus legal residence status to queer asylum seekers. 🌈
Towards the end of 2023 when they (Government officers working in Kakuma refugee camp) explicitly told us (the LGBTQ refugees and asylum seekers) to go away and find somewhere else to claim asylum and safety, I moved to South Sudan together with my fellow LGBTQ refugees and asylum seekers and we sought asylum in South Sudan. Unlike in Kenya, the UNHCR in South Sudan is allowed by the Government of South Sudan to conduct the Refugee Status Determination (RSD) interviews using their International experts. Fortunately, the UNHCR in South Sudan granted me and my fellow LGBTQ refugees a Refugee Status Determination (RSD) interview which I passed and I was granted refugee status which meant a little bit of safety from continued persecution since I can't be deported back to Uganda because I am a recognized refugee. 🌈
I have been a refugee and an Asylum seeker for nearly four years in Kenya and South Sudan. I still face a lot of psychological torture and trauma as a result of the persecution I faced in my home country Uganda; I was also disowned and ostracized by my relatives and friends, a fact that is significantly contributing to the psychological torture that I am experiencing. 🌈
My unfortunate experience of persecution and discrimination has pushed me to becoming an LGBTQ rights activist and advocate. I dream about the day when I will speak for the voiceless queer people on the world stage. I hope for a world where no queer person has to forcefully leave the comfort of their home country to seek asylum in a foreign country in an attempt to save their lives, a world where no queer person is discriminated against, a world where draconian laws criminalizing homosexuality are a subject of history. Such a world is possible only when you and I join hands and resources and amplify each other's voices️. 🌈
While in Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya, I participated in a lot of advocacy and activism regarding LGBTQ refugee rights and safety. My advocacy work was documented on the Instagram account @sevencolorspectrumkakuma
Click the link below to check out the Instagram profile and see the work of my activism and advocacy while the LGBTQ refugee community was still residing in Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya:
WHY YOU SHOULD DONATE:
We face numerous challenges. Mental health challenges such as psychological torture and stress are very common amongst us. We also face discrimination from the rest of the refugee population and the host community. The UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) provides financial support in the local South Sudan currency, the South Sudanese Pounds, an equivalent of only $10 per refugee per month for basic needs. This money can't sustain us for more than a day considering the high inflation in South Sudan where we are living That amount given to us in South Sudanese Pounds is too little to sustain a person for more than a day. Therefore there is a challenge of lack of basic needs like food, clean drinking water, clothes, decent shelters, healthcare, etc. There are a considerable number of LGBTQ refugees in the camp who suffer from diseases such as HIV/AIDS, asthma, epilepsy, sickle cells, and of recent, cholera has become very common. 🌈
As an LGBTQ refugee rights activist, a representative and one of the leaders of our community, one of my tasks is to advocate for the betterment of the living conditions of the LGBTQ refugees in Gorom refugee camp. To that end, I reached out to a well-wisher based in the United States last year to help us set up a fundraising campaign on the popular crowdfunding platform "gofundme" since someone in Africa can't create a fundraising campaign on the platform. On April 29th, 2025 they launched our fundraiser which you can donate to by visiting the link below:

They say a father is a pillar of support, but what can a father do when all doors are closed to him, resources run dry, and he stands helpless before his seven children?
I am Isaac, a father from Gaza. I write to you today as I look at the faces of my children, who did not choose to be born into this harsh reality. My youngest, my one-year-old, goes to sleep every night not knowing if he will have anything to eat tomorrow, while his six older siblings try to understand why their lives have changed and become a daily struggle for survival.
I am not begging; I am appealing to your humanity. I am looking for partners in saving lives.
The situation I am living is not just statistics or news; it is a reality I live every second with my children. I simply want to provide them with milk, bread, and a modicum of the security that every innocent soul on earth deserves.
I'm sharing the link to my campaign with you, not for financial gain, but to keep us breathing. To all those with compassionate hearts, donating isn't just about money; it's a message telling my children that the world hasn't forgotten them, that there are those who stand by them in their darkest hours. If you can't donate, sharing this post is a lifeline that might reach a kind heart.
I am eshaq from Gaza, 39 years old, Father of 6 children
My friends everywhere, we are facing genocide and hunger. I know you care about us and thank you so much for your support when our little boy was born before time, only 1,2 kilos.
My children, my wife and me need food to survive. Hunger is stronger than war. I have seven children, the oldest is 16 years old and the youngest is 22 days old. I hope you will stand by me and help me get food and milk for my children.
They were deprived of their most basic rights as children
a place that has seen unimaginable suffering. In a matter of moments, everything I had was taken away. My home, which held all my memories, dreams, and moments of joy, was reduced to rubble in the recent war. I no longer have a place to call home, and the security I once knew is gone. Every day is a struggle—no electricity, no clean water, and a constant sense of fear and uncertainty.
I have lost not just my home, but also my sense of normalcy. The nights are filled with the sounds of war, and the days are spent trying to survive. I never thought I would find myself in this position, where basic human needs are a luxury. But here I am, reaching out to you in one of the most difficult moments of my life.
I am not alone in this. So many of us here in Gaza are trying to pick up the pieces of our shattered lives. Your help means more than just financial support—it’s a message of hope. It’s a reminder that we are not forgotten. Every donation brings us closer to rebuilding not just our homes, but our lives and our future.
Please, stand with us in this dark time. Your kindness can light the way for those of us who are desperately searching for hope. Thank you for your generosity and for giving us a chance to rebuild and recover from this devastation."
Please make a donation your donation makes a huge difference
You can save a life !!
My name is Ishaq, I am 39 years old, and I live in the Gaza Strip with my wi… Kevin Kuenzi needs your support for Please help Eshaq al Badrs
