FUR/HELP is an EU-based non-profit initiative that benefits LGBTQIA+ asylum seekers and refugees from the post-soviet areas, as well as American transgender people in danger.
Founded in November 2022 by a human rights trans activist and refugee YukiDeer, FUR/HELP emerged from the urgent need to support those fleeing violence, discrimination, and death threats in their home countries simply for being who they are.
We envision a future where no one must choose between authenticity and safety, as help has no borders.
We have helped more than 25 people escape persecution, torture and inhumane treatment, as well as settle in the third countries, while they wait for a way to apply for asylum.
