Hello everyone It’s been 19 days since I last posted. I’ve been very sick and deeply depressed. I just didn’t have the strength to even hold the phone. I have been suffering from Malaria, typhoid and ulcers for almost 2 weeks now. I am really writing to inform you that we are in danger.

I’m Cyara, a trans refugee in South Sudan. It’s me and 3 other trans sisters. Ever since the government came out told us to leave the camp and live in Juba city life became really horrible. It told us that it would forcefully evict us. Imprison or deport us. The deadline past weeks ago. They haven’t reacted as they said. But now the community has started attacking us. Refugees and host communities are now beating and promising to cut us with machetes. Besides physical violence now they have resorted to threatening to kill us. They say we are against their culture, religion and laws.

We are trying to raise money to relocate to safety even just temporary shelter. We’ve raised a little but it’s nowhere near enough. We urgently need support shares, donations, any connection that can help.

I know many people are struggling but if you can help us even in a small way it could save lives. I’m open to a voice or video call to share more. Please we really need your support.

The support link is on my profile.

Thank you so much

You may not be aware, but mutual aid posts have been disallowed since last time. I'll allow it this time because of the previous verification, but please abide to it next time.

Thank you so much, also I’m sorry for the late response and also didn’t get time to read the rule once again. I totally understand and thank you for your support

I don't believe you, sadly. I'll donate to some charity if you have one in mind, however, sending money to individual people is one of my nonos. I wish you luck, however, allowing these kinds of posts will only encourage scammers.

We did video verification with OP last time, but I do agree that this is not a community for mutual aid, which is why it has been disallowed last time.

I’m really sorry and I totally understand but honestly our situation is real and we are only desperate for help. Thank you for your support
