'Trans Secret Santa' campaign launched in UK for trans 'young people' under 25

LGBTQ+ activism organization Think2Speak launched a Secret Santa campaign for trans "young people" in the UK on December 5 in collaboration with trans model and speaker Jude Guaitamacchi, trans artist Mister Samo and Octavian Starr.

According to the Think2Speak website, "All the money raised will be used to fund sending secret santa cards and gift bundles to trans young people in the UK."

It also states that "Gifts are available for young people in the UK age 25 and under."

In order to receive a gift, the website asks for an application that requires birth year, name, pronouns, address and email address.

It also asks: "Please do not complete this form on behalf of a young person, unless you have discussed it with them and it is safe for them to receive post at the address given."

Aside from a form in which a company/brand can donate gifts for the bundles, it is unclear who will be assembling them and what gifts will be chosen.

The shipping parcels will also be "packaged discretely," preventing parents from knowing what might be inside.

To fund the campaign, Think2Speak asks for donations to their Crowdfunder on their website. As of Thursday, £9,120 ($11,651) has been raised out of the £15,000 ($19,163) ask.
