Dropped by @thetprojectsg Homeless Transgender Shelter yesterday to drop off a bunch of clothes and shoes for donation! 👕👟 💞 Did you know that this shelter, apart from apparel, also accepts donations for staple food rations as well? In which they provide for and distribute to transgendered people who aren't able to support themselves due to illness, disability, old age and trauma. 😊 I think that what this shelter is doing is remarkable, and it is exactly what the Transgender Community in Singapore needs. I've always considered myself blessed to have always had what I needed in my life (and more 😅), so I feel like giving back to the needy within the trans community in Singapore would be a great way to help others who weren't as fortunate. ❤ For those interested to make any contributions to this amazing cause as well, write @thetprojectsg through DM, and the lovely people there will help facilitate you through the entire process! Thank you Daryl and June for having me yesterday! 😙 P.S Credits to @esukki82 for helping me bring the heavy AF bags to the shelter. I had alot to give away. 😅 #transgender #lgbt #transgenderactivist #charity #thetproject #transwoman #trans
