I recommend donations go through her and all needs directed the same. I say this as a trans refugee who's been homeless for 6months. I get where this person is at, but direct aid is not always the best thing, especially for someone still under a disapproving roof.
Thank you! I will inform them about this.

You may reach out to these people as they may be in a position to help.
Hello there, fellow Indian. Not a trans, and I would have contributed, but I am broke myself. Have you tried asking folks on r/LGBTIndia?
Uhm, no, I do not have a Reddit account. I have forwarded their request to most platforms I have an account on.
Just wanted to let you know that government hospitals have schemes for free MTF surgery. I think that your friend is probably apprehensive about the quality of treatment, which is understandable. In that case, they should check out hospitals in nearby tier 2 and 3 cities.
Thank you. I'll inform them.
