Trans Day of Empowerment ...................

[eshaver]

I got to thinking about this idea yet again as I prepared for out T D O R here locally. While we so far have no "Official " day to do this , it could be ! In deed folks , Gays have their "Pride '. Nice as many of these festivals are , it still doesn't represent what I call SUCESSFUL people who have done something to be awarded a recognition in their community. I want to hear from EVERYONE here at Susan's  on this . I want to see lawmakers awarded , people on the street even recognition that they have done something positive for furthering Transgender living and or lifestyle . I'd like to see scholarships awarded to a transgender student too.

Hey, it doesn't have to have a parade down Main street, just a simple buffet. Afterwards , lets have awards . O K , what do you say??? ellen

Scholarships for transgendered students, especially for those with no support of their families, I think are a great idonerOverall I think your idea is a great one

If that happened, Willow, I would actually have been able to go to school.

As would many, including myself, who will have to take out over $20,000 in loans a year for the next two-three years if my family decides not to pay for school anymore. So many more are in worse situations though.
