hey comrades !!! No pressure to read this….I know everyone’s got a lot going on. I just wanted to share a little update from us here in Juba. Things have been really tough lately. Today makes it four days without bathing, and we can’t even flush the toilet anymore. This morning I had to go to our neighbor to ask if he could spare just 10 liters of water for cooking and drinking. It’s not that we don’t want to go fetch more…it’s the fear. The last time we tried, we were attacked by men on the road. We survived but the fear never really left
Our caretaker still hasn’t come back but he left us with a heavy burden. We still need to finish the 244 usd left of our 900 usd rent before he reconnects our water. After we paid 531 usd, he reconnected the WiFi and electricity which helped a lot but without water, even small things feel impossible.
I really hate having to ask again but I don’t know where else to turn. Life before finding this community was already full of pain and fear, and I can’t go back…especially in a place where being trans is dangerous. You’ve been the only light keeping us going.
Sharing our story here is the only way we stay seen and hope for solidarity from people who understand. So many of you have already helped us and I carry that love every day. I just hope that one day I’ll be able to help others the way you’ve helped me and my girls.If you know any trans community or kind-hearted person who might want to help, please share our story.
I’m writing this with honesty and hope, praying it reaches someone kind enough to share or support. Even the smallest donation makes a difference…it keeps us alive, literally. Thank you for reading this and for standing with us through everything.
