black trans woman facing homelessness

Donation protected
On June 6th 2020 I was outed to my family by someone who I thought was a close family friend. I'm transgender and identify as a woman and as my family is extremely religious I refrained from letting them know and was gonna wait until I turned 18 and left for college to finally come out. I had previously told my next-door neighbor who my family has been close with for as long as I can remember. She took it upon herself to tell my parents as she felt that they deserved to know (they didn't).

Because of this, I'm being kicked out, my mom told me that I have until Wednesday to pack my stuff and leave. I have nowhere to go, I'm only 17 and I don't have a job. I'm black and I still present as a male so I'm too scared to call the police for help and I fear that if I end up living on the street I'll be killed. I'd try to fight to stay in my house but I know they'll hurt me if I don't leave

Please help I'm looking for any donations I'll even take a dollar I just need to gather enough money to buy a motel room for a few weeks while I figure out what to do. 

I'm sorry I didn't post a picture of myself I'm too scared that my parents or someone they know will see this gofundme and do something to me (also why I'm posting this on my friends page)
