We created Transgender Education Network of Texas's (TENT's) Emergency Community Relief Fund last year as an unprecedented pandemic's impact disproportionately affected transgender, non binary, and/or intersex Texans with further harm being caused to individuals who's full and whole identity included other factors of marginalization. Even though TENT historically has been and will continue to be a non direct service organization we recognize that community is often all we have. TENT's work is for, led, and staffed by a majority BIPOC team from our working board to our staff and we deeply understand the need for specific support efforts for our siblings in the wake of emergency disaster situations. We will continue to fundraise for this specific fund along with committing that ALL funds collected and raised will be disbursed to our trans Texans that are faced with increased financial hardship when major disasters occur.
