**To my queer friends across the world — please read 💙**
**My name is Abdul. I’m queer, and I’m in Gorom camp, South Sudan.**
**I want to be clear about our survival:**
**We are LGBTQ+ people living in a place where being ourselves puts us at risk every day.**
**For months we’ve been waiting on UNHCR to evacuate us to Canada 🇨🇦🇨🇦**
**Until that happens, we are still here. And we are still trying to survive.**
**So far, funds from people like you have helped us so much:**
**- Food to keep us from going hungry**
**- Basic medicine and hygiene supplies**
**- Safe shelter and emergency support when things got dangerous**
**- Phone credit to stay connected and stay safe**
**But we still need help.**
**While we wait for evacuation, we still need:**
**- Food and clean water every week**
**- Toiletries, soap, sanitary items**
**- Transport and medical costs**
**- Anything to keep us safe and stable for the days ahead**
**To everyone who has ever supported me, Abdul, and all the other queers in this camp: THANK YOU.**
**Your support has kept us alive. Your kindness has kept us going.**
**If you can share this, donate, or just keep us in your thoughts — please do.**
**We haven’t been forgotten. And with you, we won’t be. 🏳️⚧️**
