Recognizing the lack of peer support for the transgender community, TransBefrienders was founded in 2019, by a group of transgender professionals from various background. They are a peer support organization for trans youths seeking assistance, friendship or mentorship. They match youths with trained befrienders who have prior experience with the transitioning process in Singapore.

As existing support systems in Singapore are limited in how much they can help, having another person as a source of support through one’s transition can help to minimize the usual uncertainty and loneliness of the process. They also have a study support scheme for mentorship for O, A, and N level students.

From July 2021 to April 2022, we have donated part of our profits to TransBefrienders in Singapore.
