At HER, we know that transgender and non-binary people are a gift to this world and the LGBTQ+ community at large. Whether you personally know or love a trans person or not, our siblings are under legislative attack and need our help. That is why this year, for Pride, we are partnering with FOLX Health to raise over $400,000 to protect access to trans healthcare via the FOLX Care Fund!
This year, FOLX Health has partnered with Black Trans Advocacy Coalition to raise over $400,000 to give 491 transgender people a year of free gender-affirming hormone therapy. In the United States, over 500 anti-LGBTQ+ bills were introduced in 2023 that are currently making their way through state legislatures. Many of these bills aim to restrict healthcare, including access to life-saving medication, for transgender and non-binary people.

There has been a rise in anti-trans legislation attempting to deny basic human rights to the trans community, including healthcare. We know that access to gender-affirming healthcare saves lives. Trans people deserve the right to feel joyous, relaxed, and euphoric in their bodies. Science has proven that trans people are 100% hotter and more fun to be around when they can access the care they need.
If you have been looking for a way to support the transgender and gender non-conforming community this year, consider donating to support trans futures and livelihood. Get involved and choose to be on the right side of history in this fight for LGBTQ+ rights today.
If you are trans and feeling isolated or disconnected from the LGBTQ+ community, download HER today to start making connections with other queer and trans people in your area.
