Sharing the experiences of our community. These are stories of struggle, resilience, and hope.
"I was forced to flee my home after my family discovered my sexuality. For months, I felt completely alone and scared. Finding a community that accepted me saved my life. We need more spaces like AfriGay."
"Being a trans woman in my country is a daily battle. I've faced discrimination in housing, employment, and even from law enforcement. My hope is that AfriGay can help connect us to resources and legal support."
"The mental toll of hiding who you are is immense. I struggled with depression for years. It was only when I found other LGBTQIA+ people to talk to that I started to heal. A platform like AfriGay is desperately needed."
