On behalf of the TRANS Program Fundraising Committee, we invite you to support the TRANS Program’s work and mission of improving transgender and non-binary lives, in Mississippi, by joining us for the TRANS Program’s 2nd Annual Anniversary Gala, on Saturday, June 27th at The Sanctuary in Biloxi, MS! The doors will open at 6:00pm and the Gala will formally begin at 7:00pm.
This event will serve to celebrate our two year anniversary as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, showcase the work we have done, speak to our current and upcoming priorities, honor individuals and organizations like YOU (who have enabled us to do the life-changing work that we do), and raise funds for our priority initiatives. The event will be semi-formal and will include dinner, dessert, bar, raffles, silent auction, speakers, video, testimonials, awards, live entertainment and more!

More Info:
Attacks on the transgender community have never been so prominent and dangerous. Trans people are being denied their basic needs and existence. We are facing legal battles, mental and physical health battles, housing battles, employment battles and more. Many are unwilling to leave their homes, and live in fear. Recent bills like MS SB2322 are making matters worse.
Over the past year, and thanks to allies like you, TRANS Program has been able to help over a thousand transgender and non-binary people through peer to peer connection and belonging-centered initiatives, creation of safe spaces, amplification of voices, connection to and expansion of resources, education, general and direct advocacy, networking, and direct services such as assistance with legal name and gender marker change, therapy, leadership development opportunities and more! We consistently support parents of trans people, partners and families of trans people, trans adults and trans youth. Many have shared testimonies of newfound purpose in life, overall improved quality of life, and, for some… a reason to live.
There is plenty of work to do and with proper resources and support from allies like you. WE have and will continue to make waves of positive change towards a more just, inclusive, safe and affirming world where trans people don’t just survive, but thrive!
Thank you, again, for your continued commitment to supporting our community. We look forward to celebrating with you, honoring you and partnering with you, at the 2nd Anniversary Gala, and in the continued work of improving transgender and non-binary lives, in Mississippi!
