    This fundraiser will benefit

    Ruu

    from New Delhi, Delhi

Hi, I am Ruhan. I am a transgender non-binary person and a musician. I am a neurodivergent person and I also suffer from Bipolar Disorder and Borderline Personality Disorder. 
I need to move out from my family as they don't accept my mental health and my gender identity. I have been asked to go away from my house. I need to move out in order to be safe. I'm being threatened in the name of honour and reputation of the family. 

Earlier I was taken to a doctor who told my parents that my dysphoria can be treated by conversion therapy to which my parents agreed. I was beaten up when I refused to go there again. 
Now when I have a good doctor, I'm being asked to not visit him 

The pandemic has left me without any source of income and I have no monetary support from my family. I am a musician and in these times finding performances and work is also an extremely difficult task. During the first wave, I had to do sex work, during the second wave I got some work but I donated all my savings for social causes and now, I am left with no funds to sustain and with no work that pays me. Recently, I also had a skin infection wherein I exhausted all the funds I had saved.
I am a qawwal which is an orthodox Islamic music and being a Transgender person I rarely get gigs to perform. After the pandemic, things have got tougher.
I need a studio for my work as people don't want to work with me on their studios because they get awkward with a Transgender person or they hate me.
I need money to move out, to run my music expenses, expenses for therapy and medicines for mental health, treatment for physical ailments.

The utilization of funds:-
1) moving out to different state - 2,00,000
Music expenses - ₹200000 including studio expenses
1L for therapy and medications for physical and mental health


Please help me out in these tough times
(Rohan Bellani is my deadname, please don't refer to me by that name)
