Please help us raise $3,000 for the emergency evacuation of Sophie Carol Wanyenze’s family.

Sophie is an internationally known Ugandan LGBTQ activist who is here in the United States on asylum from the Ugandan government.

Uganda's Anti-Homosexuality Act of 2023 is among the world's harshest laws against LGBTQ+ people, prescribing the death penalty for "aggravated homosexuality" and life imprisonment for consensual same-sex acts. It also criminalizes the "promotion" of homosexuality and "holding out" as LGBTQ+, with penalties up to 20 years. - Human Rights Watch

Sophie has survived numerous attempts at quieting her and came to the United States believing that she could protect not only herself but her family - most importantly, her two children who she left in the care of their father and her parents.

This is no easy decision for any mother.

Now, the Ugandan government is targeting her children.

We MUST get them out.

Your donation will go to flights, visas, and transport. And provide immediate security for their well-being and Sophie’s piece of mind.

The Nachan Project is a registered 501(c)3 not for profit charity in the United States and an International NGO in Uganda. We are committed to protecting the well-being and rights of all mothers and their children. All donations are tax deductible.
