This month, the newly created Transgender Emergency Fund (TEF) will begin helping transgender and transsexual individuals pay their bills. After holding two fundraisers, TEF reached its original fundraising goal of $2500 and has begun accepting applications from individuals who are in need of financial help. The fund was started to provide financial assistance to low-income trans people struggling to pay medical co-pays, prescription co-pays, utility bills and other basic expenses.
