Trans Voices: Stories of Resilience, Identity, and Allyship

The Our Fund Foundation is sponsoring an op-ed series amplifying South Florida transgender voices to foster education, empathy, and allyship, especially as transgender people face increasing attacks. We hope these personal narratives will deepen understanding and strengthen support, contributing to a more just and inclusive South Florida for LGBTQ people.

The Our Fund Foundation is South Florida’s leading expert on LGBTQ issues, guiding philanthropy to build a thriving LGBTQ community. With $25M in assets, it ranks among the nation’s top LGBTQ funders and is the only LGBTQ-specific community foundation in the Southeastern U.S.
