We survived the hospital. Now weโ€™re fighting to find a safe home.

Hey comrades ๐Ÿ’™

Iโ€™m reaching out again because my sisters and I really need your help right now. Thanks to your incredible support before, my sisters were able to get the emergency medical care they needed .. you truly saved their lives. Now weโ€™re facing the next big challenge: finding a safe place to stay.

Right now, weโ€™re stuck in a temporary spot thatโ€™s not safe or permanent. We could be asked to leave any time, and with things getting worse for LGBTQ+ people here, itโ€™s terrifying not knowing what could happen next.

We canโ€™t go back to the Gorom camp .. the host community doesnโ€™t want us there anymore. UNHCR told us to stay in Juba while they keep working on our resettlement, but theyโ€™re out of donations due to the global crisis. They asked us to try to โ€œblend inโ€ here for now, but thatโ€™s almost impossible without a safe place. There are over 300 LGBTQ+ refugees here from Rwanda, Uganda, Burundi, Ethiopia, and Congo in the same struggle after camp attack and no safe house is big enough for everyone.

So weโ€™re trying to get a small, affordable apartment here in Juba that can fit the four of us together. Somewhere we can finally feel safe and breathe again.

So far, Iโ€™ve raised $66 through my GoFundMe, but itโ€™s not nearly enough yet. Hereโ€™s our budget for this move:

๐Ÿš Transport to Juba for 4 people = $100โ€“150 ๐Ÿ  Initial rent + deposit (1โ€“2 months) =$250โ€“350 ๐Ÿ› Bedding and essentials (mattresses, blankets, cooking items) = $150 ๐Ÿฒ Food & basics for the first month = $200 ๐Ÿฅ Follow-up checkups and meds =$50

๐Ÿ“Œ Estimated total needed: $700โ€“850

This would cover getting us to Juba safely, securing a small apartment, and making sure we have food and the meds my sisters still need.

Any support donations, shares, or advice on safe places would mean everything to us right now. Every dollar brings us closer to safety and keeps us off the streets. ๐Ÿ’œ

The mutual aid link is in my profile just tap my name. Thank you so much for standing with us.
