A young woman once dubbed “the world’s ugliest woman” has a beautiful message to spread through an anti-bullying documentary about her life.

Lizzie Velasquez, 25, hopes to raise money for her film, tentatively titled “The Lizzie Project,” through a Kickstarter campaign. The campaign’s trailer can be seen at TheLizzieProject.com,

Velasquez suffers from a rare syndrome that makes it impossible for her to gain weight. It’s so rare, that only two other people in the world are known to have it. She has never weighed more than 64 pounds and is blind in one eye. Velasquez was born four weeks premature. Doctors used a photo to show her to her mother for the first time

She became famous after a speech in December 2013, where she discussed the time she found herself in a YouTube video titled “World’s Ugliest Woman.” In it, she found comments such as, “do the world a favor and put a gun to your head.” Velasquez said, “’Instead of just taking shelter of my tears, I chose to be happy and realize this syndrome is not a problem but a blessing that allows me to improve myself and inspire other people,’ said Velasquez.

She hopes to raise hopes to raise $180,000 for “The Lizzie Project.” So far, it has collected $123,000 in donations. It ends May 31. These campaigns have been known to work very quickly. For instance, in “Veronica Mars” creator Rob Thomas started a Kickstarter campaign to turn the television show into a movie. Within 12 hours, fans donated $1.2 million. It reached $5.7 million after 30 days.

In addition to her movie plans, Velasquez has written a self-help book titled, “Choosing Happiness.” It will be published in August.
