This month Ways2Raise is proud to announce our next campaign; Raine’s Gender Therapy and Hormone Fundraiser. 

“Hi everyone, my name is Raine. I am a disabled trans woman of color and I need your help. These past few months have been extremely difficult for me. Firstly, I’m disabled and on a very limited income. Because of this, I’ve been on a waiting list for a number of years with the Transgender Institute here in Kansas City, to receive services pro bono. As it stands, I’ve  been unsuccessful and unable to begin that in the 5 years that I’ve been living life as a woman; I’m not even on HRT. And with the poor economy and other factors, the Transgender Institute no longer even offers pro bono services.”

This campaign will be different than anything you have seen before. While we will be setting up a Dedicated Design (a design made and sold exclusively in order to donate towards a trans individual in need) for Raine in the months to come, we are kicking off this fundraiser by collaborating with other trans/queer brands. 

This kick off is a donation based drawing. Meaning you not only have the opportunity to help an amazing woman, but also the chance to win a t-shirt, hoodie, or hat from each of the brands involved with the project.
