The Queer Trans Project

The Queer Trans Project, a Black-led and Trans-led initiative, is dedicated to providing gender-affirming resources to empower queer and trans individuals worldwide, equipping them with the confidence and power to drive social change in their communities. Our mission centers on urgently delivering essential supplies and assistance to help combat dysphoria and promote dignified, safe, private, and empowered living. Our organization comprises three primary programs: Build-a-Queer Kits: These fully customizable gender-affirming kits are offered free of charge, containing a range of items, including binders, Gender Grip, socks, pride merchandise, stickers, and more. Free Flights for Gender-Affirming Healthcare Access: Our commitment to inclusivity extends to providing free flights for those seeking gender-affirming healthcare, ensuring access to necessary resources. The QTP Love Line: This hotline is a rapid response, healing justice initiative of The Queer Trans Project, featuring pre-recorded messages of affirmation and encouragement from LGBTQ+ members and allies in our community for our LGBTQ+ community. Founded by Cielo Sunsarae in Jacksonville, Florida, in Spring 2021, The Queer Trans Project began with a vision, a $500 grant, and a two-bedroom apartment. We evolved into an inclusive organization dedicated to addressing dysphoria in trans and gender non-conforming individuals, regardless of their demographic background. Since our inception, The Queer Trans Project has experienced significant growth. Our reach has extended to millions of individuals across various social media platforms, supported by a dedicated following of thousands of advocates. Our impact knows no borders, thanks to the incredible support of our community. We take pride in our meaningful partnerships with esteemed organizations like Lush Cosmetics, GC2B, HRC, Elevated Access, and more.
