Sophie2

Hello, my name is Ashen Hallens. I recently lost a friend I was very close to by the name of Sophie Skye.



Sophie (who previously went by the name of Rosa) was a transgender student at the University of North Texas who loved playing Super Smash Bros. and watching anime with friends. She was a wonderful person whom brought joy to all those she met.



On January 23rd 2018, Sophie took her own life. Following her death, Sophie's supportive parents held a obituary in her dead name, misgendering her on her death bed. As a close friend of her's, I want to do all that I can to remember her for the person she was, and as the identity she preferred.


This GoFundMe page's goal is to raise funds for The Trevor Project to support suicide awareness and prevention in the LGBTQ community. All donations given to this cause will go directly to the Trevor Project, a non-profit organization that provides crisis intervention and suicide prevention for LGBTQ youth. I hope that though this project we can reach out to individuals with suicidal thoughts and prevent the loss of loved ones to suicide.



Any amount you can donate is  extremely appreciated.

Thank you.
