Transanta

An opportunity to directly support trans youth:

Today, Transanta started posting letters for this year.

Founded in 2020, it "connects anonymous gift-givers with trans youth who are unhoused, in foster care, or otherwise without crucial support they need to thrive."

(The youth create Amazon wishlists, so you can buy them stuff to be shipped to them without them having to share their mailing address publicly. I hate using Amazon, but I totally understand why the org uses it for this and I definitely buy stuff off the wishlists every year.)

The org will be posting letters through November and December, so feel free to check it out anytime.

You can browse the letters on their Instagram or on buy.transanta.com (which also direct-links to the Amazon wishlists, and lets you sort by most recently posted letters or oldest posted letters with the least amount gifted).
