Dear Sponsor of Georgina,
You may have seen the updates on our socials—or maybe not. Georgina arrived in a new place a few weeks ago. After her flight to Jordan fell through, we worked with her to secure a visa and a flight to another country, where she is now staying on a tourist visa. She is currently working with UNHCR to find permanent residency, but that process takes time.
Soon, her tourist visa will expire, and we are hoping to get it extended. For that, she will need to show proof of sufficient funding to stay. Until then, she depends on support for rent, food, and medication.
One possible solution is relocation through UNHCR to a welcoming country. Another path would be a gender-affirming surgery, which would allow her to officially change her gender marker on her passport. This would free her from persecution by the Egyptian army and enable her to seek permanent residency in the country she is in now.
Here is a personal message from Georgina.
We don’t know exactly how long it will take to secure her final destination—it could be weeks, or it could be months. In the meantime, we are building a support group of 50 people who can donate $10 to $20 per month until she is safe.
If you are already a regular sponsor, Georgina and the Freethinkers community are deeply grateful for your support. Another way to help is by sharing her story on social media. We are active on:
If you have donated once before and have the means to help again, your continued support would mean the world to Georgina.
Together, we can save lives—people who are too often abandoned by their families, their communities, and their countries.
Thank you for standing with Georgina.
