Transgender Day of Visibility Fund

About

On March 31st we recognize International Transgender Day of Visibility. It's a day dedicated to the joy, resilience, and brilliance of trans and non-binary people. At Backblaze, we believe visibility is a powerful tool for change, and we are proud to highlight organizations that uplift these voices every day. However, visibility without protection is a risk. We cannot celebrate this day without acknowledging that the transgender community is currently facing an unprecedented wave of discriminatory legislation and hostile public discourse. Why Your Support Matters Right Now The "toll" isn't just emotional—it’s a matter of physical safety and survival. Anti-trans sentiment in our laws and media is directly linked to an increase in real-world violence. When rights are rolled back, the most vulnerable members of our community lose access to life-saving healthcare, legal protection, and safe housing. By donating to this fund, you are providing: - Crisis Intervention: Funding lifelines for youth in immediate distress. - Legal Defense: Fighting unconstitutional laws that target trans identities. - Narrative Change: Replacing harmful misinformation with stories of trans youth thriving. - Direct Aid: Providing tangible, material support to those marginalized by systemic bias.

American Civil Liberties Union Foundation Of Kansas

The mission of the ACLU of Kansas is to protect and defend the constitutional rights and civil liberties of every individual in Kansas regardless of creed, race, religion, gender identification, or class. Across the spectrum of our issues, the ACLU targets policies and practices that impede the ability of historically disenfranchised communities to empower themselves, gain, and retain an equal footing in society. Communities which have historically suffered infringements of constitutional rights and liberties include people of color, women, immigrants, people who identify as LGBTQ+, prisoners, people with disabilities, and the poor. Ensuring that all people receive truly equal treatment under the law has been a focus of the ACLU’s work since its founding.
