A love story under the shadow of transphobia

Eser, a trans man, and Huriye have been together since 2010. Not only did their families reject them after finding out about their relationship, they have actively assaulted and threatened their lives. Please watch their story below. English subtitles are available! (Warning: Graphic description of violence)

Eser and Huriye cannot afford to work legally because of the possibility of being tracked down by their families. They want to move abroad to live freely and safely.

Your donations will help them:
- Find a safe shelter
-  Make their travel arrangements
-  Get their basic needs met and create a new living situation in the event of them safely moving abroad until they find jobs.

As Huriye quotes in the video, ''When there is love, there is life.''  

Let's give them our love and support. I will keep you posted on their new journey.

Thank you!
