Trans is Human cannot go ahead without your support! We need to raise money asap. Regrettably we have not been able to access sponsorship in time to fund the logistics including studio space, post production, printing, food and travel for contributors.
We have so much in place already. World renowned photographer Mariano Vivanco has kindly offered his time and Soho House have donated a stunning space for our launch event and to exhibit the portraits.
We have had an overwhelming response from so many incredible trans+ people around the country and it would be a disservice not to tell their inspiring stories at a time where trans+ people deserve to be seen and heard.
We know times are hard, but we ask you to show your solidarity to this trans+ led project, that is needed now more than ever. Please dig deep, donate or share this fundraiser.
To those that donate £75+ to the fundraiser will receive an exclusive invite to our launch event at Soho House in June.
Financial terms:
Anyone that donates will receive a follow you email accounting for all costs including receipts. This project is not for profit and if the fundraiser exceeds the target we will be donating any proceed to Not A Phase.
More information:
In the UK trans+ people are the subject of increasing controversy and polarising political debates. The UK government and press have been responsible for spreading a sustained campaign of disinformation, vilifying and dehumanising trans+ people which is inevitably perpetuating discrimination, violence and death. In the last year transphobic hate crime in the UK has hit record breaking highs.
Through a series of stunning, authentic and relatable portraits from world renowned photographer Mariano Vivanco, coupled with the human stories of transgender people from all walks of life, the #TransIsHuman project will celebrate the humanity of this vibrant and diverse community.
Created and produced by actor and filmmaker Jake Graf and co-produced by model, activist and inspirational speaker Jude Guaitamacchi and the often, unseen faces of the transgender community will shine as we turn the spotlight on them.
This year we’re inviting you to help amplify this incredibly important project. Let’s show the world that #TransIsHuman.
