""It's brutal right now," Roan said, "but trans people have always existed, and they will forever exist, and they will never, no matter what happens, take trans joy away, and that has to be protected more than anything." "I would not be here without trans girls," she added. "So, just know that pop music is thinking about you and cares about you. And I'm trying my best to stand up for you in every way that I can.""
""Those funds will be donated to incredible organizations making a positive impact for trans youth in their communities," Roan wrote on social media when launching the project in late October."
Chappell Roan launched the Midwest Princess Project to support trans youth and LGBTQ+ communities. Fundraising at Roan's pop-up shows generated more than $400,000 for donation. Initial beneficiaries include The Ali Forney Center, The Center in New York City, the GLO Center, The Center Project in Missouri, the TransLatin@ Coalition, and the Trans Wellness Center in Los Angeles. The project aims to uplift trans youth through action, care, and connection. Roan also pledged a portion of tour ticket sales to trans organizations and emphasized protecting trans joy amid political challenges.
