On Jan. 7, Cincinnati non-profit Transform started a crowd-fund campaign to fund-raise money for a new location.

By Jan. 9, the second-hand clothing store that offers free wardrobes to transgender kids and teens had raised almost $30,000 thanks in part to a retweet from late-night show host Seth Meyers.

The donations have continued to pour in and the organization has raised almost $47,000 by Jan. 15.

Celebrities continue to take videos, sharing their support. Lin-Manuel Miranda,the writer of "Hamilton" sent one on Jan. 10.

"Hi Nancy. Hi Matt," Miranda said in the video. "I think what you're doing with Transform is incredible. I think you're going to change Cincinnati. I think it's really laudable and I'm just incredible impressed. And I wish you all the luck in the world."

On Jan. 14, Ava DuVernay, director of When They See Us, also sent a message.

"I wanted to take the time just to say I am wearing a gown that feels like it fits me perfectly. And I think everyone should be able to have clothes that match their identity and how they feel. That's why I think it's so important that we all support Transform Cincy," she said in the video.

The fundraiser has received local and national attention. There have been no major donors so far, just over 500 small donations from individuals, says Tristan Vaught, co-founder of Transform.

Vaught founded the organization with 17-year-old Ella Dastillung, and her mother, Nancy Dawson. Dawson has a transgender daughter and Vaught identifies as nonbinary or gender-queer, meaning Vaught uses the pronouns they/them and does not identify as either male or female.

Transform has been operating in the backroom of Dawson's store, Brideface since November.

This fundraiser is to help get a permanent space for Transform.

"I know we're dreaming big to think that we could get a building out of it, but we'll see," Vaught said. The hope is to have a storefront on the first floor, a meeting space for transgender youth and programming on the second and office space on the third floor.

"We're really just on a crunch with our fundraising because my other co-founder Nancy Dawson was told that her breast cancer came back and that it is a terminal diagnosis and she only has a few weeks left. So our big push now is we want to make this her legacy and we want her to see us thriving before she passes."

The nonprofit offers clothing to and styling youth who are in the process of gender transition. All of the services at Transform free, all of the clothing is donated.

Transform is open by appointment only, and shoppers fill out a style guide ahead of time so so volunteers can have clothing options ready.

Since opening in November, the organization has had 24 clients. The farthest client so far came from five hours away.

"We've learned we definitely need our own home," Vaught said.

"Having them walk in to a wardrobe lovingly curated as a result of their questionnaire was beyond words. It looked like a personal shopping experience at a high end store without the intimidation that assuredly brings on doubt and self-consciousness. They had the time and space to play with looks and try on new things. We all were taken aback by the look on their face. Something happens when you feel like a million dollars in an outfit, something shifts when you can feel authentic," according to a Facebook post from Transform.

Vaught believes this is the first shop of its kind. Members of the trio say people have contacted them from across the United States, asking how they got the closet together and if they would be willing to open more locations.

Vaught says that of course, in the future, they'd like to open more locations in more cities.
