My name is Vivian and I'm a queer community organizer and trans-mother of four. While having partial custody of my children, I work full-time and perform additional volunter work, regularly planning and hosting events for Glitter Bean Cafe. I've regulatly organized and coordinated community events for months and have defended the trans community on the news when we have been attacked, always doing my best to facilitate a vibrant safe space for folks who need it. While I do my very best to support my community, I have been struggling to secure the funds I need to make it month to month. I've been seeking support through the application of subsidy programs, but acceptance into those programs is slow going. I've incured a great deal of debt just trying to make it through month to month and it's gotten to the point where it's unbearable.

The money I'm asking for is just enough to help me make rent, and hopefully make it to the next month. Anything you can give is incredibly helpful.

Thank you
