Tee Tee's Funeral Go Fund Me Page

Tee Tee Dangerfield was murdered earlier this week, and like many families in this situation, the unexpected death of a young family member has left them scrambling to cover the expenses for her funeral costs.

***

Thank you so much for stopping by this page to honor and celebrate Tee Tee Dangerfield’s life and legacy. 

The Dangerfield family would like to thank everyone who has expressed their condolences – and blessed us with their prayers during this extremely difficult time. 

Our family never thought we would have to bury our loved one – unexpectedly. 

Tee Tee was murdered on July 31st, 2017 around 4:30AM at an apartment complex in College Park, Georgia. Police say, someone shot her multiple times while she was sitting inside of her car. When medics arrived, they rushed her to the hospital, but sadly she died upon arrival. 
We know this story has touched many people in the Atlanta-metro area and across the country. Especially, those in the LGBT community. We want you to know your love and support has meant everything to our family. We also want you to know that Tee Tee was a prideful transgendered woman and happily supported her community. 

If you feel compelled to donate to Tee Tee’s Fund to cover her burial and funeral expenses, we would gladly appreciate it.  

For all those who a part of the LGBT community, in transition, scared of people’s perceptions know that Tee Tee would say – “Be fabulous, honey!”  

Our sincerest gratitude, 

The Dangerfield Family

Gwen Araujo's Mom Sylvia Guerrero Needs Our Help

17 year old Gwen Araujo was brutally murdered on October 4, 2002 and ever since then, her mother Sylvia Guerrero has been a standup ally for our community.

I was saddened to learn Sylvia has been going through some tough times lately.   To add to the difficulties she's already experiencing, she unexpectedly lost her Social Security disability benefits and her Medicare in June.  The loss of those benefits has resulted in her car being repossessed.  She reapplied for reinstatement those benefits in August, but still hasn't heard any word whether they have been reinstated.


While some friends have stepped up to help her with a short term loan here and there, she's still fiscally underwater and has started a GoFundMe campaign in which she hopes to raise $4,000 to help her purchase a used car to get around and get her life stabilized.

At the time this post was compiled, $1,170 has been raised toward her goal.   Trans family, can we help Sylvia Guerrero out?   She's been there for us, and now she needs the trans community to stand up for her.

Here's the link to the GoFundMe campaign.
