My name is Yaroslav Hort. I am a transgender man, transgender rights activist in Ukraine.

I live in Ukraine. I am a migrant, moved to Ukraine from Russia.

For several years I have worked for human rights organizations in Ukraine. I helped transgender people defend their human rights, make a transgender transition, and provided support. I was the coordinator of an international consultation project for trans*people. 

Last summer, due to the COVID-19 crisis and other related issues, I lost my job.It hit me very hard, because I am very tied psychologically to my field of activity.I was deeply depressed. This requires medical treatment and a safe environment. My partner is also in a bad psychological state because of our whole situation. In this state, I can hardly work, moreover, it is very difficult for me to find a job. I look like a man, but I have female documents. Now I cannot change my passport because I have problems with Ukrainian citizenship. Now I am on the verge of losing my home due to the inability to pay the rent. And I have big debts that need to be paid back.

Now I need to pay off my rent arrears. About $ 1,000. Move to cheaper, safer housing. Because where we live now, neighbors threaten our dogs and us. I do not want to create problems for others and myself. It costs about $500 to move. My debt is close to $ 3,000. I really want to return this money, I am ashamed in front of the people who gave it to me.

We are both unwell. Medicines cost about a hundred dollars a month. I need an examination for a long time, which will cost about $300-400.

And we need money for food for us and our animals. About $200. So that we can live in safety for at least one month. Recover. And continue to act. Even now I continue to advise and help trans *people. I want to do it more efficiently and on a larger scale. I want to share my experience with other people. My partner is a journalist, writer and artist. She was previously a Depression and Dysphoria Consultant for a trans * help project. But she was forced to leave this job due to burnout. We both do street art. And we can do a lot for the world and people. But now we really need help.

Please help us up.

The money is needed very urgently. Most issues need to be resolved by March 21.

Thanks you!
