Help Zac Reunite with Yuri in Finland!
Donation protected
Due to the increasing danger of living in the States as a trans person, I have made the decision to flee the country come January. However, my spouse does not have the funds to come with me due to having family members who depend on them for financial support.
I met Zac at the end of August and immediately knew I had found my soulmate. We got engaged after a month and were living in our perfect bubble of T4T happiness until the election results came through and we realized that the blissful phase was over and we had to work together to make some hard decisions. We eventually decided that I had to go first, and that they would catch up in a year. However, every day I become increasingly more terrified that if they wait that long, the situation will have only grown more dire, or worse—that something will happen to them and I'll never see my wife again.
Before they leave, they are trying to pay off their car, as well as make sure they provide rent for their roommate who depends on them for the next 15 months, and their sibling who also depends on them after fleeing their abusive family and needed a place to stay. Their strong desire to help others, even when it puts them in a tougher situation, is one of their most beautiful qualities. That's why I don't want to see them sacrifice themselves this time. I want to help them get to where they need to be without carrying the responsibility of so many extra lives on their shoulders.
Zac has donated more money than they have ever had at one time to others in need. They've given more money than they've had in their entire bank account to trans people in need who have actively hurt or abused them. Zac has spent countless hours in their spare time over the course of several years doing local volunteer work in women's shelters, homeless shelters, local politics, mutual aid, you name it without ever asking for a single thing in return. If anyone deserves support, it's them. I've never met a more selfless human being, and it's why I am doing this for them, because it's their turn to receive aid even if they'd never ask for it themselves.
I am begging you to help us, to help them, to help me. They are my home, my future, my entire life. I cannot lose them, especially when our time together has been so short. Every bit helps. Thank you so much everyone.
