Get #LouderWithLove at the polls this year! Your vote shapes the future for everyone you love. TURN UP! Do your homework. 📣 Make your voice heard.  There's too much on the line to sit this one out & protecting our rights shouldn't be a spectator sport.  #VOTEWITHLOVE

623 people asked for $200 in emergency assistance this week. We could help 10. We've already sent $1,400 directly to recipients. Next week, we do it again. 💜 The need isn't slowing down. We need sustainable funding to meet it. 💗 Text FUNDJOY to 44321

Colonizers didn't discover shit, including a world without gender diversity. They invaded societies where that diversity already existed, then worked to erase it. Now their descendants say WE'RE the ones rewriting history. 😂 Fuck that. Learn the history. Challenge the lies. Break the cycle.

🚨 OUR EMERGENCY MICROGRANT APPLICATION IS NOW OPEN! 🏳️‍⚧️ $200 in emergency assistance for eligible 2TIGE adults (18+) in the U.S. and territories. ⏰ Apply TODAY, 12–6 PM CT. 💗 10 recipients selected weekly. Read all rules and apply: transempowerment.org/microgrants-program PLEASE SHARE! 🔁

Support candidates who create safe, inclusive communities for EVERYONE, including people who exist outside of the binary. Every vote can help build a future where we all get to thrive. And remember, when the hate gets loud, we're getting #LouderWithLove especially at the ballot box!

Trans people are more than a footnote in conversations about sexual violence; We're survivors too.  Survivors shouldn't have to explain their gender before their pain is taken seriously.  If we're real about supporting survivors, 2TIGE folks have to be part of the conversation from the beginning!

We need your help. 💗 The need in our community is enormous, and TEP needs sustainable support to keep showing up. Read through the graphics, then if you can, become a monthly donor or send a gift today. Every dollar makes a difference. Venmo & PayPal: transempowerment

Here’s a word from our volunteer, Shea! “Since becoming a volunteer with TEP, I’ve gained an incredible community, new skills, confidence, and am helping to create some pretty amazing change. If you’re looking for a place to belong, I couldn’t recommend TEP enough!” 💜 #TransEmpowermentProject

The best part about Camp Chaos? The $7,883.18 raised isn't sitting in an account somewhere. It's being turned around and invested directly back into the 2TIGE community through TEP's next microgrant cycle. Thank you, camp counselors and campers. 💜🏕️

🚨 What if burnout isn't a personal failure...but an organizational one? This past weekend at #NetrootsNation, TEP's ED Jack Knoxville shared lessons on building movements that can survive the long fight, pulled from his 20+ years of organizing & leadership experience.

🚨 ONLY 5 DAYS UNTIL CAMP CHAOS 🚨 Pack your bags and charge your controllers, because from June 1–8, we’re celebrating Pride with a week of streaming, games, community, and fundraising for Trans Empowerment Project. It’s giving summer camp energy, but with WiFi and gender euphoria. ✨

Sometimes the right book finds us exactly when we need it. 💚 Stories about anxiety, grief, depression, identity, healing, friendship, and hope remind us that struggling doesn’t make us broken — it makes us human. What book helped you feel understood? 📚 #SheasBookNook #MentalHealthAwareness
