Indya Moore Launches Transanta To Save Trans Kids’ Christmas
The spirit of giving is in the air
This year the holidays look different.
A lot of us played it safe during Thanksgiving and opted to stay home and only celebrate with the ones in our household. With Covid cases rising, it looks like we’ll need to isolate for Christmas as well.
However, for lots of LGBTQ people, being isolated during the holidays is routine. Unsupportive and abusive family members force us to choose isolation and peace over a dangerous, hostile environment.
Indya Moore, most known for playing Angel on Pose, launched TranSanta to help trans kids know they’re loved and lift their spirits during the holidays.
TranSanta is kind of like a humongous, virtual angel tree except they’re trans instead of children with incarcerated parents. Each participant has a personal, Target registry. You can buy them something on their wish list and it’ll get sent straight to them. She came up with the idea with Chase Strangio, who is a trans rights lawyer.
It’s mainly run on Instagram. Clicking on the link in their bio will take you to the registry site that will take you to their Target…
