lillaurelSo if you've been reading along, you're already probably aware of Transcending Boundaries Conference, and how great it's going to be. Seriously, it's going to be a wonderful event, with great people, and I think a really positive experience for everyone attending.
One of the things we are really striving to do it make it so people who want to attend can, even if they can't afford it. We've tried hard to ensure fair ticket prices. We also want to do scholarships, but it isn't looking like we'll balance out to do too many with the existing numbers based on our expenses.
There is a Boston Health Clinic for the Homeless with six homeless transgender folks who would like to attend Transcending Boundaries. We don't know how many scholarships we can afford, but if we can raise $25 for each person, we can guarantee their attendance. If you think you can help or know someone who can, please, let us know or donate via PayPal to transcendingboundaries@gmail.com! Every little bit would be helpful. It would really, really great to help these people - they're so excited at the prospect of being somewhere they fit in. Feel free to spread the word and thank you!
