Egads! We need your help. Yes! Tranma is being thrown in the calaboose! It’s for a good cause. She’s being jailed by Inspire Youth Project an organization that support kids impacted by HIV/AIDS, trauma, neglect and abuse. Every bit of your bail goes towards getting the young’uns a support network of programs such as Peer Support Groups, One-on-One Mentoring, Teen Leadership, and Scholarship Opportunities.

Unlike most folks locked up for The Big Bail Out who solicit bail money to get OUT of the hoosegow, we want you to donate money for us to give to the Inspire Youth Project “Parole Board” to help:

KEEP TRANMA IN JAIL for her GROSS MISDEEDS AGAINST HUMANITY!!!!

….and FASHION.

Please help us keep Tranma in orange coveralls for the rest of her unnatural life. You can help us before the old hag’s sentencing and jail time on Thursday, April 23rd 4.00pm by donating directly online, it is by far the easiest way to help us keep her incarcerated. But, there are other ways you can help as well.

Donate over the phone with a credit card by calling me on Thursday.

Give your donation directly to me to bring to 95 Slide (aka the Courthouse) on Thursday, April 23rd.

Make a check out to “Inspire Youth Project” and put “Tranma/Michael Strangeways” AND “BBO” in the memo line then SNAIL MAIL the check to:

Inspire Youth Project 417 23rd Avenue South Seattle, WA 98144

Come to 95 Slide on Thursday, April 23rd between 5:30pm and 8pm and help bail you out in person. You may have to get bailed out yourself if you don’t behave.

Expect a call from me asking you to BAIL ME OUT!!

All right – we gotta go! The SWAT Team is at the door to remove Tranma. Thank you in advance for your support. Let’s put our resources together to help these kids and the wonderful work Inspire Youth Project is doing.

Oh, and remember: No gift is too small or to BIG!

$50 can help keep creativity flowing by filling craft boxes and providing art supplies so that kids can express themselves in more than just words.

$100 can help send a teen to Teen Retreat—to build confidence, try new things, and strengthen friendships.

$250 can provide one child, age 5-8, with a full year of Magic Circle. That means meeting new friends, learning new things and having a safe space to be a kid!

$1000 can send a child to IYP’s Rise ‘N Shine sleep-away summer camp—where they have the chance to reinvent themselves and explore their greatness.

We hope you will help make the Big Bail Out a huge success by giving today!

And, COME DOWN TO 95 SLIDE AND JOIN IN THE FUN!

BRING SOAP FOR THE SHOWER!!!

AND, CASH!!!!

Note: This is largely a bastardization of marketing material created by Inspire Youth Project, ie, basically a cut n’paste job with some silly additions by Mr. Strangeways. Do not blame Inspire Youth Project for his “creative” folly. Just give them lots of money. TY.

Editor’s Note: The character “Tranma” is a drag persona and character. And, if anything, a parody of drag culture, “scene” queens and overly serious drag queen performers. “Tranma” isn’t based on or meant to be representational of any actual person. Tranma is a drag “clown” performer in the tradition of other shock character drag performers and creations.
