I need your support right now with safety and legal costs, and a human rights fighting fund.

$2,328 of $100,000 goal
Given by 52 generous donors in around 3 months

I need help with moving, security, extra living, and legal costs. We are also establishing a human rights legal fighting fund.

Wellington

Update: Saturday, 2 August.

I'd like to provide all my supporters with a brief update.

Courts admitted that they breached my privacy, but are asserting that they aren't legally responsible.

I am off to the Privacy Commissioner next to get justice for myself on that one.

As I said previously my moving, security, etc, costs are looking to be closer to 5k. I will cap them there for the purposes of this fundraiser.

Legal costs and my privacy case will come next. I need 30k for that.

Then, after that, the funds will be spent on a human rights fighting fund, some of those costs have already been incurred (on the puberty blockers issue).

We have our first actions identified:

- Holding the Human Rights Commission to account on trans rights.

- A privacy or human rights action to hold those who violated Alex's memory in death. We have identified the people responsible and are developing innovative legal arguments.

- We are set to go with a Judicial Review if the Government meaningfully restricts access to puberty blockers for trans youth. We have already incurred legal expenses in preparation for this matter. Trans youth must have access to blockers - it's their human right if access is kept for cis-youth.

Thank you.

Paul
