What we want to do in the Future and how we would use the Grants and Donations
1. Our office is a 2 room office with very little room to provide a area for programs or to hold meetings for the
transgender community.
2. In time we would like to purchase a building to house our needs for the Homeless and Transgender communities
that will provide rooms for homeless and areas for meetings and programs.
3. We have donation drives and fund raisers, but this does not give us enough funding for much of anything except
maybe paying for supplies.
4.. Our board of directors consist of Transgender individuals who have lived their lives as their authentic selves for over
15 to 25 years.
5.. We first started out helping transgender population by creating Transgender support groups beginning is 2004 to
present when I started this office for Transgender Affairs and Homeless Services in York, Pa. The Name of our
office is The Transology Association Inc., York Office for Transgender Affairs and Homeless Services. We first
opened our office in July of 2021 and have been providing the overhead to run our office out of our pockets and
desperately need grants to help keep our office alive to help these communities.
6.. Our office is the first of its kind to help the transgender population on a local basis. We only help Transgender
individuals and now Homeless individuals.
7.. We started helping Homeless individuals because there are many homeless transgender people. After researching
the homeless we decided to help all homeless because of this fact.
8.. There really are not many places a transgender individual can go to seek help that is free to them for any situation
and many places will not help a transgender individual just because they are transgender. This factor is changing
slowly but still is a major factor in providing help to the transgender communities.
9. There are other homeless businesses that provide help to the homeless but not many are providing what we wish
to provide to the homeless communities. The businesses that do help homeless need help helping the homeless
due to the homeless population growing. We intent to help with this issue by providing the funding mentioned in
this document.
10. We are looking for grants that can provide 50,000 to 150,000 for our first grant to help our needs to help the
communities mentioned in this document. Our yearly need would budget out to around 50,000 a year after all
needs have been provided for which give us a recurring need for 50,000 pus a year.
11. This is only an estimate, things can change drastically in the course of a year at times.
12. Right now our yearly need is around 25,000 but this does not include a bus or the bus upkeep, program cost,
location cost, funding for transgender and homeless needs for medical, shelter, food etc. ….
13. Our goal is to be able to purchase a building large enough to provide rooms for homeless people on a 90-day
temporary basis. While living in our building we would help them to get back on their feet and help to establish
them with a job so they can begin to develop a new life and be on their own again.
14.. In this building we want to also have a section for a Transgender Therapist and a Psychologist. These medical
professionals will help transgender individuals on their journey in life that know and understand the needs of these
people that are in transition to be who they are so that their internal self being, and self-awareness matches their
physical appearance.
15. In this building we want to have a section for a medical practitioner to provide health care to Transgender
individuals who is acquainted with the medical needs of transgender people.
16. In this building we wish to have enough space available to provide programs for both the Homeless and
transgender communities that could seat 40 people comfortably and also use this space to hold community
meetings and dinners for homeless.
17. In this building we also will need space for our offices and a file room for records. There would be need for at least
5 rooms for the Board Members to work independently with people needing guidance and assistance and to work
with the local governments.
18. In this building we would also need a large conference room to hold meetings with government officials and other
community businesses related to homeless and transgender needs.
19. Along with this building we would need a large lot for parking. The property should be on at least 1 acre of land to
provide the space needed for the building and parking.
20. In this building we would also like to have space where clothing could be donated for those needing clothes, coats,
shoes and seasonal attire.
21. In this building we would also like to have a space where vending machines could be located for these
communities to use.
According to the Homeless coalition, many homeless people are living in abandoned buildings, sheds, storage units, tents in the woods, cars, under bridges or elsewhere. There needs to be a way to help these unfortunate individuals and this is what we are trying to do.
The number of people experiencing homelessness in York, according to the "point in time"count every January, has remained fairly consistent in recent years... 2017: 323 people
2018: 324 people
2019: 328 people
In the state of Pennsylvania right now the homeless population is - 13,375 in 2023,
In York, Pennsylvania Last year, on January 23, 2022, York County conducted its point-in time count, which identified that there were a total of 328 people residing in emergency shelters, transitional housing, or sleeping in an unsheltered location that night. That particular night there were 38 homeless that were unsheltered
We have not received the total number of Homeless in York, Pennsylvania yet for 2023 but it probably will be greater then the total in 2022.
At present we cannot accomplish our goal in helping the York Homeless with the funds we have or with the grants that are coming in. Our office is to small to shelter homeless and we need a larger location in order to provide the shelter for any homeless individuals. Usually, the shelters in York are always at their capacity and cannot take in other homeless which leaves homeless in the street or other locations that could endanger their lives. Our goal is to help with this homeless situation in York, Pennsylvania.
Your donations will help no matter how big or how small. Help us help these unfortunate individuals. You can go to any of the donation links provided below to send your donation to help us raise the $50,000.00 PLUS we need to help the homeless in York, Pennsylvania.
Homeless Campaign to raise funds to help the homeless in York, Pennsylvania
We are beginning a campaign to raise $50,000.00 plus to help the homelessness in York, Pennsylvania. Our campaign is with GO Fund Me. All your donations are tax deductible. The Homelessness in York, Pennsylvania is becoming an issue due to the lack of space to shelter the homeless. We are starting this campaign to help with this problem.
People experience homelessness due to reasons beyond their control such as, loss of jobs, sickness, disabilities, bad economy, inflation, family abuse, destruction of their home by severe weather conditions, and loss of livable income, just for starters. I was homeless many years ago so I know first-hand how it affects you having to face the hardships of homelessness and one of the reasons I started this association.
The number of people experiencing homelessness in York is growing and shelters that give these individuals a roof over their head for a night stay are all usually at capacity leaving many without shelter. When shelter space is unavailable which is a major issue here, many stay outdoors, in abandoned buildings, in cars, or in make-shift cardboard shelters on sidewalks or in fields and wooded areas. This leaves the unsheltered homeless population exposed to additional danger, illness, and potential arrest due to trespassing.
Transgender homeless have challenges finding shelter in York when they become homeless just simply because they are transgender. The homeless shelters available in York have rules they have to follow which prohibit transgender individuals in finding shelter that relates to the gender they are living as unless they have documents providing proof of their gender change. This is a major issue for transgender people who are homeless. It puts them in dangerous situations and open to bullying and attacks on their person. This is another reason I started this association.
Our goal is to gain enough funds to lease a building to help provide shelter to the homeless, specifically those looking for transgender-friendly shelter options, or provide all homeless with temporary shelter by paying for motel or hotel stays until an appropriate shelter space becomes available.
Your donations will help us to help the homeless in York, Pennsylvania by providing the shelter needed to house the homeless and help them get back on their feet and back into society and a better life.
If this go fund me reaches an individual who has a building that is vacant in York, Pennsylvania or any other location that has been sitting empty and not used please consider donating it to help a worthwhile cause for the homeless in York or in other locations.
Please help us reach our goal so we can begin to give the needed help the homeless need. Every donation is tax deductible. It does not matter how big or how small your donations are, every penny helps us to reach our goal to help the homelessness in York, Pennsylvania and other locations.
