This is not your conventional deal that you would find in Ozbargain but it may be something that could benefit or help someone in need with Christmas around the corner.

Hopefully EVERYONE can have a happy and safe Christmas!

      Im not sure why I got downvoted so much. Heres a source but just google it there's heaps of official reports:

      https://www.pinknews.co.uk/2017/07/14/salvation-army-rehab-c…

      "The Commission’s testers approached more than a dozen substance abuse centers citywide to inquire whether the centers accepted transgender patients for treatment and where those patients would be housed.

      The Commission found that one center outright refused to accept transgender patients, telling a Commission tester that “no, we don’t [accept transgender patients].”

      Representatives at other centers told Commission testers that transgender women would be housed according to their gender assigned at birth, in violation of gender identity protections under the NYC Human Rights Law.

      One representative said that “people with moving male parts would be housed with men,” while another said “it depends on how far along the person is in the process.” Representatives also said that they perform physical examinations on transgender patients to determine whether they are on hormone medication or have had surgery.

      It has been illegal in New York City to discriminate against individuals based on their gender identity since 2002, when the New York City Council passed legislation to include gender identity as a protected class under the NYC Human Rights Law.

      The rehab centres could face fines of up to $250,000 over discriminatory practises."

  Somehow I doubt the people who need this have access to the internet and browse ozbargain lol

    exactly. posting this means people who actually need the food will miss out. anyone here who goes should be embarrassed and ashamed of themselves. ozbargainers are tight, they're not poor. big difference.
