Help Ripple Hauxs Keep RENT PAID so we can comtinue our work providing sanctuary for BIPOC Trans Liberation!
Ripple Hauxs is more than just a house—we are a movement, a sanctuary, and a lifeline for trans, LGB and immigrant folks in Central Florida.
We’re calling on our community to help us raise 38,000 to cover rent and sustain our bold, life-affirming programming through the end of the year.
Why it matters:
In a state where our rights are under attack, Ripple Hauxs is the only program of its kind built by and Prioritizing BIPOC trans people.
Since starting our programming in early 2025, we’ve provided:
✨ Secure, healing spaces to gather, create, and exist without fear
✨ Free monthly calendar of events like Ripple Saturdays, open swim and open workouts, and wellness workshops
✨ Transportation to gender-affirming care, court dates, and critical appointments
✨ Opportunities for LOCAL trans artists and leaders to get paid for their work
✨ A growing calendar of joy-centered, trauma-informed, and resistance-rooted programs
We’ve done all this on a volunteer-led, grassroots budget. But we can’t do it alone.
