️⚧️A Journey from Afghanistan to Germany, Searching for Safety and Dignity
Hello, my name is A. (for safety reasons I can't write my full name here). I am a 28-year-old transgender woman from Afghanistan.
Throughout my life, I have faced discrimination, pain, and fear simply because of who I am.
Being a trans woman in Afghanistan meant living in constant danger — every day was a fight for survival. My family and society never accepted me, and I had to hide my true identity just to stay alive.
Despite everything, I chose to survive. I chose to fight for the right to be myself — to breathe freely and to live without fear. After a long and difficult journey, I am now in Germany, staying in a refugee camp.
But life here is still not easy. As a trans woman, I struggle to cover even my basic needs — clothing, hygiene products, transportation, and sometimes even a warm cup of coffee feel like luxuries.
On top of that, my health insurance doesn’t cover some of the essential treatments I need.
One of my biggest wishes is to begin laser hair removal, which is not only important for my appearance but for my mental and emotional well-being.
For me, this treatment is not just about beauty — it’s about healing, self-acceptance, and feeling comfortable in my own skin. Unfortunately, the costs are too high for me to afford on my own.
That’s why I’m starting this campaign.
The funds raised will help me with:
- Basic living needs (clothing, hygiene, food)
- Transportation and German language course costs
- Health-related expenses and laser hair removal treatment
- Finding a safer and more stable place to live
I don’t just want to survive — I want to live with dignity and freedom.
If you’re reading this, please consider sharing my story or contributing, even a little.
Every donation brings me one step closer to a life where I can finally be myself without fear.
My friend is helping me with this gofundme because I cannot register that’s why his name is written here. But all of the money will come 100% to me!
Thank you so much for your kindness and support <3
