Fund Nabi's Transition & Expenses

I’m Nabi, a 21-year-old illustrator  and unfortunate trans guy trying to get away from an abusive family. My parents are from a strictly conservative Hindu household and have been trying to get me arranged-married as soon as they can, and I’m running out of time to escape from them. Even though I’m in a very unstable position right now--I have a few jobs but I’m not sure how far they’re going to take me, since I’m a freelance artist and everything depends on how often I can get clients--I’ve decided that I have to take the risk and leave, or I succumb to the possibility of being sent to India, having my documents taken, and being forcibly married off. I’m also a Muslim, and my parents have at many times beat me/threatened to kill me/kick me out every time they notice something “off” or “deviant” about me. I don’t currently live with them--I live with friends in an apartment bc of school--but I would like to no longer be dependent on my parents to get by bc I know that they will disown me and possibly attempt to harm me when I come out. (Believe me, I’ve contacted police/law enforcement /multiple/ times. They don’t do shit.)

This GoFundMe is to help get me on my feet, afford transition/HRT, and continue making art while I split off from my folks. I no longer want to be tethered to my abusive parents financially and postpone my transition/threaten my mental health/risk getting forcibly married with each passing year. Please help out in any way you can! It’s taken me a lot to reach out for help, but I’m doing this only because I have limited options as a disabled trans person of color.
