Support LGBT Ugandans

Goal

Hi, my name is Jescah. I am a proud Ugandan lesbian who is raising funds to evacuate LGBT people out of Uganda in response to the recent Anti-Gay Bill that was passed in our country. Here are some consequences of the bill:

  • Employing or leasing housing to an LGBT person in Uganda is punishable by 14 years in prison. Many of us lost our jobs and homes when the bill passed and have been relying on donations to pay for food, water, housing, and transportation.
  • LGBT people who stay in Uganda are at risk of torture, arrest, life in prison, or the death penalty.

Your donations will pay for transportation of LGBT Ugandans to neighboring countries. Once our transportation costs are covered, funding will be used for food, water, medical care for those of us who have been injured, and paying cash bail for any queer Ugandans unfairly arrested.

I don’t usually have money to spare on stuff like this, so i’m super glad that i’ve made a lot of money recently and not had to spend too much. I know $10 isn’t much but anything that gets closer to the goal has to be a good thing. Crossing my fingers that we can help these people. ❤️

As a queer Nigerian, I relate to the constant fear you deal with when living in a country you are proud of but is ashamed of, afraid of, and detests your existence. You are doing needed and amazing work. I will be coming back to donate every time I receive more money. I am praying for your safety and success and hope the knowledge that there are other queer Africans supporting you and your efforts is somewhat reassuring!

I’m so sorry that you all are being put through this. American evangelicals brought this hateful ideology to Uganda, the least we LGBT Americans can do is help you escape it.
