Hello Everyone, How Are You?🏳️‍🌈

Please take a few minutes to read this post.

I’m writing these words out of sheer desperation. I feel like the world has turned its back on us. Just today, I came across a statistic that Tumblr has over 100 million downloads. That’s an enormous number! But imagine what if 100 million people saw you and ignored you? How would that make you feel? Deeply disappointed? Invisible? Or perhaps wishing you didn’t exist at all?

For us, the LGBTQ+ refugees in East Africa, that feeling of being invisible is our daily reality. We live in constant suffering starving, battling disease, and enduring relentless persecution simply because of who we are. Every day, we fight to survive, knowing that the world seems unaware of our struggles.

Right now, it feels like so much of the world’s attention is focused on the situation in Gaza. And please don’t misunderstand me I’m not saying that takes away from the urgency of what’s happening there. The suffering in Gaza is real and devastating. But I’m asking you to also keep an eye on what’s happening to the LGBTQ+ community in East Africa.

Here, we’re losing lives every day. Our friends and loved ones are dying from starvation, disease, and violent attacks. Yet none of the mainstream media shine a light on us. We are invisible to the world, but our suffering is just as real.

If I wasn’t in desperate need of help, I wouldn’t be here asking. This isn’t just about me it’s about my fellow LGBTQ+ refugees who are starving and homeless, with no access to basic medical care or safety. Every day, we face hostility from those around us. We’re shunned, attacked, and left with nowhere to turn.

Please, don’t ignore us. Be our hope. Be our voice. We’re begging for your support not just to survive, but to have a chance at a life free from suffering.

Even a small donation can make a huge difference. If just a fraction of those who read this post contributed $5, we could feed our community, treat illnesses, and begin to rebuild our lives. If you can’t donate, please consider sharing this post. Each share spreads awareness about our situation and brings us closer to finding those who can help.

Your kindness whether through donating or sharing could save lives. Imagine being in our place one day, needing help from others. What you do today could inspire others to help you or someone else tomorrow.

We survive on barely one meal a day, and some days, not even that. Can you skip a meal and donate what it would have cost to help LGBTQ+ refugees who are suffering?

To everyone who has supported us already, thank you from the depths of our hearts. Your generosity and compassion mean the world to us. For those who are willing, please share your donations publicly or send a screenshot privately to encourage others to join in.

Our posts might get likes, but we desperately need donations to make it through another day. If you’re reading this, please help us. Follow our account, @ashleymilesphil to stay updated on our ongoing situation and the struggles of LGBTQ+ refugees in East Africa.

You are our last hope. Be part of the change. Help us survive.

Thank you so much for your time and kindness. We wish you all the best.

Hey Tumblr family, 🌍🌈

I’m ciara, a proud representative of a group of LGBTIQ refugees currently in Sudan, East Africa. We are survivors of severe persecution in our home countries, forced into exile simply for being who we are.

Today, I am reaching out to ask for your support through donations to help us meet our most urgent needs. These funds will go directly towards:

1:➡️ securing food and clean water

2:➡️ Providing safe shelter (tents)

3:➡️ Accessing essential medical care( HIVAids, TB, malaria, typhoid, hemorrhoids cholera, etc)

4:➡️ Meeting other daily necessities

Your generosity not only ensures our survival but also gives us hope as we work toward resettlement in countries like the USA, Canada, and Europe.

I will keep everyone updated here on this blog about how your donations are making an impact, the challenges we face, and the progress we make on our journey to safety and freedom.

Please consider sharing this post or our fundraiser on other social media platforms to reach more people who can help. Together, we can make a difference for the queer refugees of East Africa.

Thank you so much for your kindness and solidarity. Let’s stand together in the fight for equality and safety for all 🌍.

Welcome to Queer Corner🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Hi everyone,

My name is Ciara, and I’m a 24-year-old lesbian refugee currently living in Gorom Refugee Camp in South Sudan. I’m originally from Uganda, but for the past five years, I’ve been navigating the harsh realities of life as an LGBTQ refugee in East Africa, first in Kakuma Refugee Camp in Kenya and now here in South Sudan.

I’ve created this blog to amplify the voices of the silenced LGBTQ community people like me who face daily persecution simply for being who we are. As a representative of a group of vulnerable refugees, I hope to use this platform to raise awareness about the struggles we endure and the resilience we embody.

Through Queer Corner, I’ll be sharing stories from the community, updates on our challenges, and ways you can support our fight for survival. From discrimination to homelessness, disease, and violence, we are battling for our right to exist and live with dignity.

We exist, and our voices matter. Join me in standing with the LGBTQ refugees of East Africa. Your support whether through donations, sharing our story, or simply following along makes a world of difference.

Thank you for being here. Together, we can shine a light on our struggles and create a pathway to hope.

With love and solidarity,

Ciara
