Moss:
This Christian Group Is Offering To Fund Transgender Surgeries As A Form Of Reparations

A new campaign is asking Christians to fund gender-confirmation procedures for transgender people as a form of reparations for past discrimination.

Many churches encourage members to tithe, but the Tithe Trans campaign organized by Faithfully LGBT is asking supporters to donate to the trans community, rather than church coffers.

“There needs to be tangible ways that progressive Christians, who disagree with anti-trans theology, give to the transgender community,” says Eliel Cruz, founder of Faithfully LGBT. “I want Tithe Trans to be a way for Christians to begin to pay reparations for the damage we have caused.”

Transition-related surgery can cost in excess of $90,000, but many insurance companies refuse to cover them. And nearly 20% of transgender people lack any form of health insurance.
