ANBI Transparency Information, Dutch<\/a><\/p>\n ANBI standaardform-pubplicht-anbi-algemeen 2022<\/a><\/p>\n Member, Managing Board, Treasurer<\/strong> Member, Managing Board,\u00a0 Secretary Member, Management Board, Chair<\/strong> Stichting Trans Rescue Foundation is an independent organization that helps transgender people flee from places where it is dangerous to be transgender.<\/p>\n In 14 countries it is de jure illegal to be a transgender person. In most of those countries the penalty is death or long prison sentences. In many others, transgender people can be killed with impunity, and often with the support of the state. In well over half the countries in the world, being transgender is quite dangerous. All over the world, trans people are in danger from their own parents. We do so legally. We don\u2019t put people on rubber rafts or forge travel documents. We comply with the spirit of the 1951 UN Declaration on refugees and migrants. We are not people smugglers. Trans Rescue is the reorganization of TransEmigrate. TransEmigrate was started in 2020 by Misty Hill, with a similar mission to Trans Rescue \u2013 to get trans people out of danger. Trans Rescue works with partner organizations in the US, UK, Kenya, Turkey, the Netherlands, and Indonesia. Our primary target group is transgender people. We also will occasionally help larger LGBTI+ people. And we may occasionally move cis people in danger because of a relationship with a transgender person \u2013 for example, accepting families of trans people, children of trans people, and we have a single traveller who just fits in the \u2018no one else would help him\u2019 category. Our work requires funds, obviously. We will maintain proper accounting, and will retain a professional accountant. Board members have made interest free loans to the foundation for startup expenses. We will liquidate those loans during the first year.<\/p>\n 81000 EU – fundraising goal<\/p>\n 2500 EU – office expenses and IT<\/p>\n 8100 EU – fundraising and publicity, including 3375 for credit card processing<\/p>\n 4050 EU – to savings<\/p>\n 913 EU – one time charge for incorporation related expenses<\/p>\n 65000 EU – Cost to assist 26 transgender people to flee<\/p>\n 437 EU – remainder carried over to 2023<\/p>\n Currently only board members may make purchases.

Anne Ogborn<\/h3>\n
\nAnne Ogborn is a long time activist for transgender rights. She started her activism in the mid 1980s<\/p>\nObjective<\/h2>\n<\/section>\n
World Wide<\/h4>\n
\nWe move trans people to a situation of reasonable safety and quality of life. We don\u2019t just move people to traditional migrant destinations. Sometimes we help people move within a country.<\/p>\nLegally<\/h4>\n
\nIn some countries simply being trans is illegal. Obviously we remain trans.
\nWe move trans people as safely as we can. We believe that helping support our passengers emotionally during the invariably traumatic event of relocation is critical to their physical safety. We attempt to keep our volunteers safe as well.
\nWe are trans lead. Our management board is composed entirely of trans people.
\nWe never ask for money or work from the people we\u2019re moving. Any of our travelers are free to leave the program at any time. Financial ability is not a criteria in whether we help someone flee.
\nOur output is transgender people who\u2019s lives have been saved.
\nOur outcome, besides the lives directly saved, is to raise awareness of the ongoing transgender genocide. Our work raises global awareness of discrimination against transgender people and provides an alternative narrative to the hateful portrayals of trans people as predators.<\/p>\nOur History<\/h3>\n
\nTransEmigrate never formally incorporated, and operated as a loose collection of activists.
\nHelping trans people flee is a serious business, and a more formal organizational structure was needed. It\u2019s also an expensive business, and TransEmigrate was funded from GoFundMe\u2019s and out of it\u2019s volunteer\u2019s pockets.
\nTransEmigrate was, in some sense, a successful experiment. It helped about a dozen people find new lives in safe places, and taught the participants the techniques we will use as Trans Rescue.
\nIn late December 2021 the current board formed Trans Rescue with the intention of creating a stronger organization capable of helping more people escape.<\/p>\n<\/section>\nOur Partners<\/h3>\n
\nWe work with organizations supporting LGBTI+ people in the immigration and refugee systems of Germany, the US, France, and the Netherlands.
\nWe also work with the immigration systems of these countries. We have a good relationship with COA and IND in the Netherlands, and with the immigration authorities in France.
\nWe also work with a group of very brave individuals who operate inside dangerous countries.
\nAnd we work with other organizations that do similar work.<\/p>\n<\/section>\nActivities<\/h3>\n<\/section>\n
\n
\nWe provide assistance with arranging a visa, often working both in the country of concern and the safe arrival country to obtain a visa. We never move anyone illegally, but rather work within the principles of the 1951 UN Refugee Convention.
\nWe pay costs associated with visa applications.
\nWe provide airline and other carrier tickets.
\nWe sometimes help physically extract people. Our volunteers work in some of the most dangerous countries on Earth, helping trans people leave.
\nWe may provide short term housing and stipend while a person is in hiding prior to or during transit. We do not provide \u201cmaintainence\u201d funds unless we are actively trying to move the person.
\nIn addition, we may perform any legal activity which furthers this goal. We may establish safe houses, arrange local contacts, establish an office, and perform any other action which furthers our goal.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nTarget Group<\/h3>\n
\nBut our focus is transgender people.
\nOur definition of \u2018transgender\u2019 is broad. We move people, we don\u2019t decide if they are \u2018truly\u2019 transgender.<\/p>\n<\/section>\nRaising Funds<\/h3>\n
\nWe are just getting established, and our current fundraising has been limited, as this is written, to a few donations from people in our personal network and a loan from one of our board members.
\nWe expect within a few weeks to start to engage in the normal sort of fundraising any charity might engage in.
\nWe are the follow on to a loosely organized activist group, TransEmigrate.TransEmigrate found some success with pleading for funds on GoFundMe via Twitter and Instagram campaigns.
\nWe intend to be more intentional about operating a normal marketing program.
\nWe will drive traffic to our website with social media outreach, and with content marketing programs.
\nWe will attend physical events (as Corona restrictions allow) and seek funds and engagement.
\nOur board members will network with identified donor communities and seek donations.
\nWe will have an aggressive public speaking program, raising awareness of trans people\u2019s plight, and will participate in speaker’s bureaus.
\nWe will use all these methods to cultivate a mailing list. The list, rather than the events above, will be our expected main source of revenue. In particular, we hope to draw in supporters who will make larger contributions.
\nWe will seek grants from private and public sources. We are currently particularly interested in pursuing a Google Grant. This grant is in the form of free advertising on Google Adwords. This allows us to not only fundraise, but to reach our client population.
\nWe have already received major in-kind donations. We have the use of an office space, furniture, and computers. We\u2019ve had in-kind donations of IT labor., drawings (useful for fund raising, and needed, as our passengers are in danger and we can\u2019t use images),
\nweb and logo design, professional consulting from a psychologist, the same from attorneys and from a psychiatrist.<\/p>\n<\/section>\nFund Management<\/h3>\n
\nOur accounts will be published on our website.
\nAll donations and other income will be deposited in our Bunq bank account, NL53BUNQ2067331108.
\nOur work is dangerous. Things go wrong. While an extraction that goes well averages about 2500 EU, we must maintain a generous emergency fund. There are realistic scenarios under which we could be targeted for legal harassment or physical attack by foreign governments.
\n5% of all income will be placed aside in a savings account for emergencies and long term projects. If this fund exceeds 6 months operating budget, the board will divert the excess to programs and capacity building.
\nOf the remaining 95%, less than 10% will be spent on fundraising costs. The remainder will be used for programs and capacity building. We currently are operating with low fundraising costs. While we have startup costs in Q1, we expect after this quarter to
\nspend more than 90% on direct program costs.
\nRealistically, there will always be more people to get out than we can handle. So if we can get more people out by hiring professional fundraisers or purchasing advertising, we will do so. In that case our percent spend on fundraising will increase, but administrative
\nand fundraising costs shall not exceed 30% under any circumstance.
\nSimilarly, our major expense is moving passengers. We will maintain a minimum balance, to be decided by the board. We will take on additional passengers only when they can be accommodated. Our board will set an account \u2018trip wire\u2019. When the balance
\ngoes above this level, we will move another client.
\nNo board member shall receive payment for services to the foundation. Board members may be reimbursed at cost for direct purchases on behalf of the foundation to the same limits established for purchases direct from the foundation\u2019s account.<\/p>\n<\/section>\nBudget<\/h3>\n<\/section>\n
