Donate to support Trans folks with basic needs & healthcare

I'm running half marathons as fast as my leggies can take me this Spring. I want to use my knee and shin pain for a good cause! Point of Pride, supporting Trans+ folks, is the cause I have chosen.

To some it may be obvious, and to others it may not: being trans or outside the gender binary in the USA, as well as much of the world, is incredibly difficult. It is becoming much more difficult in recent months. Over a third of trans folks are experiencing poverty (2022 US Trans Survey). A new report by the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law (2025) finds LGBT people in the U.S. are five times more likely to experience violent victimization than non-LGBT people. LGBT victims of violence are also more likely than non-LGBT people to face serious violence—such as rape, sexual assault, robbery, or aggravated assault—and to suffer injuries because of these attacks. I believe I have a responsibility to this community, to my friends, family, and neighbors, to help out where I can. Access to good healthcare is one way I can help lift up others - and Point of Pride is a great non-profit with consistently high ratings as an adaptable charity that directly supports those it claims to.

Please, join me in making a difference! Every donation will help. Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.
