Ivanilson Alekssandre Adonis Fortunato - Angolan artist and activist shot dead
A few days ago, he was shot with an AK 47, partly because of his sexuality. The bullets could be removed in Angola. The right leg, however, did not recover. After various efforts by families and friends, he could be brought to the hospital in Windhoek Namibia. There, the next shock: the leg had to be amputated to save his life.
The 31-year-old artist and LGBQTIA+ activist survived the operation «well». He is still hospitalised in Windhoek and is receiving psychological care. But there is a long way to go before he makes a «full» recovery. He must now be able to adjust psychologically and physically to his new life! And that takes time.
Due to the scarce financial resources, we, his friends and family would like to support him as best as possible on his new path in life. He should be able to stay in Windhoek for the time being. But for this we need your help! He needs a health insurance, a flat, further medical and psychological care, accompaniment and support for everyday life, etc.
Unfortunately, we need one thing for this: money. We need to raise at least CHF 1,500 to enable him to start a new life in a new country as a person with disabilities. For this we ask you for a donation. Even the smallest contribution can generate a big impact.
We are also still looking for
- an LGBQTIA organisation in Windhoek
- an organisation for prostheses
- materials so that he can resume his art soon. So: noitz or painting notebook, crayons, etc.
One for all, all for one!
Alekssandre is a very special person with rough edges who has already touched many people with his kind. We would now also like to do something for him.
This is what I need backing for.
We will use the money for the following things:
- Health insurance in Namibia
- day-to-day care (medical and psychological)
- Flat in Namibia
- Notebook, crayons, colouring book, etc.
