URGENT APPEAL FOR HELP

Last night, our transgender sister was attacked while sleeping outside.

She had no shelter, no protection, only the street.

She is now injured and needs urgent medical care. This violence happened because she is transgender and homeless.

We are raising funds for her hospital treatment and to build a safe shelter so transgender women are not forced to sleep outside again.

Please help us.

Share, donate, and stand with transgender lives. 💔🏳️‍⚧️

Transgender refugees in Mushenyi Refugee Camp are facing serious hardship.

Many are living without enough food, safe shelter, medical care, or basic hygiene supplies. On top of that, they experience discrimination and isolation.

They urgently need: • Food support

• Safe housing

• Medical assistance

• Hygiene essentials

If you are able to help in any way — through donations, sharing this post, or connecting us to organizations — it would mean so much.

Every small act of kindness makes a difference.

Please share to spread awareness. 🏳️‍⚧️

Thank You for Standing With Us Our Brother Is Still Fighting

Thank you to everyone who has donated and stood with us.

From the bottom of our hearts, we are deeply grateful to all the donors who have contributed to our fundraiser to help our brother who was beaten so badly. Your love, solidarity, and support have given us strength during one of the most painful moments of our lives.

I am sharing this video to show his current condition in the hospital. The situation is slowly changing, and we are thankful that he is receiving care, but the journey is far from over.

The total hospital bill is $1,600. So far, with your help, we have managed to pay $400, but we are still in urgent need of $1,200 to clear the remaining balance. In addition to the hospital bills, we still need support for medication and other basic needs during his recovery.

We humbly ask anyone who is able to please continue supporting us, and to share our story so it can reach more kind hearts. Every donation no matter how small truly makes a difference.

Thank you for not turning away from our pain. Thank you for standing with us. 🌈🤍

Medical Update & Financial Transparency

Dear friends and kind supporters,

I want to share an honest update about the brother who was beaten badly and whose photos I have been posting. Right now, he is in a private hospital, and his condition remains very serious due to a major brain injury.

Because of your generosity, we have successfully raised $250. This money has already been paid to the hospital, and as a result, treatment has started. The doctors are working on him now, and this has given us real hope.

=The total medical cost is $1,600.

=Amount raised and paid: $250

=Remaining balance needed urgently: $1,350

I am sharing this update to be transparent with all donors and to show that your support is truly helping. When we are able to pay, the hospital continues to provide care. This is why your help is so important right now.

Please continue to support us if you can—by donating, sharing this post, or keeping him in your thoughts and prayers. Every contribution brings us closer to saving his life.

With deep gratitude,

seadneyz

PLEASE HELP SAVE OUR BROTHER’S LIFE – URGENT $1,600 NEEDED

Our brother was brutally beaten because he is transgender. He was first taken to a government hospital, but there he faced neglect, discrimination, and transphobia. The staff did not give him the care he urgently needs, and his condition kept getting worse.

Because of this, we were forced to transfer him to a private hospital where he can receive proper and humane treatment. This decision was not a choice — it was the only way to try to save his life.

However, we have no money.

We cannot pay:

Hospital bills

Medicines

Food for him and for us while caring for him

The private hospital requires $1,600 for treatment and basic needs. Without this amount, his care may stop at any moment.

We are begging anyone who understands what transphobia, violence, and survival mean to please stand with us. Your donation — any amount — can help save his life and give him a chance to heal with dignity.

Please help us. Please share. Please donate.

His life depends on it. 💔🏳️‍⚧️

HE WAS BEATEN FOR BEING TRANSGENDER NOW TRANSPHOBIA IS KILLING HIM IN THE HOSPITAL

Our brother was brutally beaten because he is transgender. Since that attack, we have not received any donations to our fundraiser.

Right now, he is in a government hospital where transgender people are treated with hatred and neglect. The doctors and staff do not respect his identity, and this transphobia is putting his life in danger. He is not getting the care he urgently needs.

We are begging anyone who understands what transphobia means to stand with us. Please help us save our brother’s life by helping us move him to a private hospital where he can receive proper, respectful medical care.

He is in critical condition. Time is running out.

If you can donate, reblog, or share, please do. Even one action can help save a life.

Trans lives matter. Our brother’s life matters

Hello dear friend,

My name is Seadney. I am a transgender refugee writing on behalf of our community.

We are transgender refugees living in a refugee camp in East Africa after fleeing violence and persecution. Life here is very hard—we face discrimination, hunger, and insecurity. Recently, one of our friends was attacked and is now in the hospital, which has made our situation even more painful, especially during this Christmas season.

We are humbly reaching out to ask if you could help us or guide us to any form of support. Any assistance, advice, or connection would mean a lot to us.

Thank you for your time and compassion.

Sincerely,

Seadney

Help Needed: Safe Place of Worship & Emergency Medical Support

On Christmas Day, one of our transgender sisters was brutally beaten simply because she attended prayers in a homophobic church. What should have been a moment of peace and faith turned into violence and trauma. She is still recovering, and our community is deeply shaken.

Because of this, we—63 queer and transgender refugees—have decided to create our own small, safe church where we can pray without fear, without hatred, and without violence. A place where our identities do not put our lives at risk.

However, we cannot do this alone.

To construct a simple church shelter, we urgently need:

40 iron sheets

200 timbers

10 kg of nails

In addition, our sister who was attacked is still in the hospital. We do not have funds to cover her medical care, food, or basic needs during recovery. Any support toward hospital bills and medication would be life-saving.

We are not asking for luxury—only safety, dignity, and the right to worship without fear.

If you are able to help in any way—through donations, sharing our story, or connecting us to support—we would be endlessly grateful. Your kindness could help us heal, protect lives, and build a space of hope for a persecuted community.

Thank you for standing with us.

Hello Everyone, How Are You?

Please take a few minutes to read this post

I’m writing these words out of sheer desperation. I feel like the world has turned its back on us. Just today, I came across a statistic that Tumblr has over 100 million downloads. That’s an enormous number! But imagine what if 100 million people saw you and ignored you? How would that make you feel? Deeply disappointed? Invisible? Or perhaps wishing you didn’t exist at all?

For us, the LGBTQ+ refugees in Burundi, that feeling of being invisible is our daily reality. We live in constant suffering starving, battling disease, and enduring relentless persecution simply because of who we are. Every day, we fight to survive, knowing that the world seems unaware of our struggles.

[kieney]

We Are Still Here, and We Need You

Despite hunger, fear, and rejection, we are still here.

We share what little we have.

We protect one another.

We raise our voices because silence will erase us.

This post is a call for solidarity. Share our stories. Talk about us. Help us be seen by organizations and people who care.

Your support — even a reblog — can save lives.

🌈 We are still here. Please don’t forget us.

Being LGBTQ+ Should Not Be a Death Sentence

Every day we wake up with fear in our hearts.

Fear of attacks.

Fear of insults.

Fear of being reported, beaten, or ignored.

In Musenyi Camp, our identities put our lives at risk. Some of us need urgent medical care but are afraid to seek help. Others are starving quietly, hoping tomorrow will be kinder.

We are not asking for special treatment.

We are asking for the right to live.

LGBTQ+ lives are not disposable — even in refugee camps.

Queer and Forgotten: Life in Musenyi Refugee Camp

I am an LGBTQ+ refugee living in Musenyi Camp in Burundi.

Here, being queer means being invisible and unsafe.

Many of us face daily harassment, rejection, and violence simply because of who we are. We are pushed aside, denied protection, and treated as if our lives do not matter. Some of us have been forced to leave our shelters and sleep outside because the places meant to protect refugees are not safe for LGBTQ+ people.

We did not choose this life. We chose survival.

Please remember us. Please speak about us.

Our silence is not peace — it is pain.

“Living as LGBTQ+ in a Refugee Camp”

Life in Musenyi Refugee Camp is already hard, but for LGBTQ+ refugees it is even harder.

We are attacked, insulted, and excluded because of our identity.

Some of us sleep outside. Some go days without food.

Many suffer in silence because speaking out can cost us our lives.

We are human. We deserve safety and dignity.

[kieney]

“This Is Who I AmMy name is seadney an LGBTQ+ activist and a refugee living in Musenyi Refugee Camp in Burundi.🏳️‍🌈🇧🇮

I created this account to speak for those whose voices are silenced.

Being LGBTQ+ in a refugee camp means living in fear every day — fear of violence, fear of hunger, fear of rejection.

But silence will not save us.

This page is our truth, our pain, and our hope.
