RAINBOW CONNECTIONS WAS FOUNDED FROM LIVED EXPERIENCE AND A DEEP UNDERSTANDING OF HOW LIFE-SAVING AFFIRMING CARE CAN BE
After building a successful international business career, I began my medical transition and experienced, for the first time, the joy of living authentically. That transformation revealed both the urgency and the responsibility I feel toward transgender youth navigating a hostile world. Rainbow Connections exists to pair storytelling with structural support, elevating trans voices while directly funding organizations that provide essential services to LGBTQ+ youth.
