A Place for Marsha is named after famous LGBTQ+ activist: Marsha P. Johnson. Here, we are connecting the Trans Community to help each other secure housing in states where Trans Rights are treated as Human Rights.
The mission of A Place for Marsha is to facilitate safe housing for trans individuals escaping transphobic states. Here, we connect trans people (18+) from states with heavy anti-trans legislation with volunteers in safer states who are willing to be their roommates.
A Place for Marsha is newly founded and needs your help getting off the ground. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact us. All donations will go directly to moving costs.
Rainbow Railroad is a global not-for-profit organization that helps LGTBQI+ people facing persecution based on their sexual orientation, gender identity and sex characteristics. In a time when there are more displaced people than ever before, LGBTQI+ people are uniquely vulnerable due to systemic, state-enabled homophobia and transphobia. These factors either displace them in their own country or prevent them from escaping harm.
As a result of Rainbow Railroad, more LGBTQI+ individuals will be able to access lives free from persecution.
Since our founding, we’ve helped over 7,621 LGBTQI+ individuals find safety through emergency relocation and other forms of assistance. Our story has received international media attention, including a feature on CBS 60 Minutes.
