Together, we can build a future where LGBTQ+ individuals in Tanzania live with dignity, pride, and freedom.

Challenge

In Tanzania, LGBTQ+ individuals endure harsh realities: arrest, imprisonment, job loss, family rejection, denial of healthcare, school expulsion, and physical violence. These hardships are made worse by laws that criminalize LGBTQ+ existence. Without resources, protection, and advocacy, our community remains at great risk. Support is urgently needed to challenge injustice and to ensure that LGBTQ+ Tanzanians can live safely and authentically.

Solution

This project empowers LGBTQ+ individuals and grops to drive change across Tanzania. Your support will Fund essential administrative operations Power special projects and advocacy campaigns Provide emergency aid (temporary shelter, legal assistance, mental health support, and relocation services) Support vital research and leadership training for sustainable movement growth Every donation fuels the tools, safety nets, and platforms needed to protect lives and build power within our community

Long-Term Impact

By investing in this project, you are helping to create a strong, resilient LGBTQ+ movement in Tanzania. Your support advances human rights, fosters leadership, and ensures that LGBTQ+ people can live with visibility, safety, and pride. Together, we are not just changing lives - we are building a better, more inclusive future for generations to come.
