Right now, young trans people, particularly Black and Brown trans youth, are under attack across the country and around the world. The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated unsafe conditions for trans youth who are houseless, in foster care, in detention, and in abusive or otherwise unsafe housing situations. We want to show trans young people that they are loved, supported, and have a family of people around the world who care about them and want them to succeed. Anyone can be a Santa, join us! Transness is so beautiful and we are celebrating our magic! Deliver gifts anonymously to trans youth in need, safely.

Right now, there are hundreds of bills pending in state legislatures across the United States that target trans youth and aim to curb their rights. The impact of fighting these anti-trans bills and policies is felt all year by trans people, their families and loved ones.
