LGBTIQ+ rights are not a topic for debate, they are human rights. No one should have to fight for the right to exist, to love, or to live in safety and dignity. We are all human, and every life matters equally. 🏳️‍🌈✊🏽

This is the reality in Uganda. LGBTQ+ lives are being erased—called “un-African,” hunted, and criminalized. At Mapenzi Queer Foundation, we fight to protect and shelter queer refugees. But we’re not safe. We’re not funded. We need help. We need our global family. We need voices louder than hate.

Loves, Your support has saved lives. But urgent needs remain, many refugees lack food, medicine, and basic necessities. Unable to work, they rely fully on outside help. We ask UNHCR and allies to partner with Mapenzi Queer Foundation to meet these needs. Together, we can restore dignity and hope.

The UK’s top court has ruled that “woman” only means someone assigned female at birth, excluding trans women from legal protections and safe spaces. This ruling is dangerous. It denies trans people dignity, safety, and equawithout even hearing from trans voices. #lgbtrights

No one should face violence or persecution for simply being who they are. Around the world, LGBTQ people are fleeing for their lives because of hate disguised as faith. Stand with LGBTQ refugees, because love and safety should be a right, not a privilege. #ProtectLGBTQRefugees #HumanRightsForAll
