Dear Supporters,
Peace and greetings to you. We are knocking on the doors of your hearts to seek support for the sustainability of our work at the Waria Crisis Center (WCC), a safe house for elderly transwomen in crisis in Yogyakarta, Indonesia.
As in previous years, we are launching a public donation drive to cover the needs of the WCC & Kebaya Shelter that fall outside our existing support. While we currently have several collaborative programs, these grants do not directly fund the continuity of shelter operation, palliative care, support for the elderly, or emergency assistance.
Last year’s public donation drive proved to be incredibly effective in addressing numerous challenges within the transwomen and PLHIV (People Living with HIV) communities. However, we urgently need support to keep our doors open and ensure our community is safe and cared for during these difficult times.
OUR GOAL
- $17,500 for 1 Year to cover urgent, basic needs that fall outside official funding
WHAT YOUR GIFT CAN DO
- $25 allows one home visit and micro-cash support, for an elderly member in economic crisis
- $50 helps arrange legal ID and health insurance for a community member with incomplete documents
- $110 fully funds one week of Pendampingan advocacy for a team of 6 volunteers, addressing the needs of dozens of community members
We earnestly hope for your participation and voluntary support. May the Almighty reward your kindness, support, and solidarity manifold.
In solidarity,
Rully Mallay, Senior Staff, WCC
and the WCC Public Fundraising Team

Funds will be immediately transfered in full to WCC finance officer Novy Piyya
