I don't think you should create an image for your purposes in that way; it's a definate no no, You should use a "real" image, assuming that person has the capacity to give their permission. If you want to start campaign, work with professionals – it's a minefield, for example, you shouldn't use the term "Handicap", and your slogan is questionable IMO.

In my country is satire and caricature joke pictures with politicians legal and don't need agreement of this political person.

I dont have money for proffesional ageture and marketing. I need it to do myself.

"Handicap" yes i know i am from Czech Republic. It is bad translation of that campaign. And also slogan. It is in czech language which is more respectful for local peopl and mentality, traditions of people here.

You realise that to use a photograph in that way you need permission from both the photographer who took the image, and therefore owns the copyright, and  of the person in the photograph (known as model release).

I agree with Derek. What you are proposing is a no, no.

Good luck with your campaign for funding, but take the advice and don't enter that minefield.

What you're proposing is not satire or caricature it is using an altered image of a person to support a specific campaign. Last time I looked, the Czech Republic was part of the EU so EU law applies including GDPR. As to whether your use would be seen as falling under legitimate journalistic, informational, literary, artistic or research purposes, I am not a lawyer and could not advise.

Again, I wish you good luck with your campaign for funding, but I'm out of this discussion.
