Hi friends,
I’m sharing this on behalf of someone I care about deeply — a healthcare worker and community member who is raising funds for gender-affirming surgery. They’re keeping their name private for safety and professional reasons, but sharing this story is one of the most vulnerable and honest things they’ve ever done.
This surgery is essential for their safety, mental and physical health, and ability to live more fully as themselves. It will allow them to move through the world with greater peace, confidence, and well-being — both personally and professionally.
They’ve spent years supporting others through their work in healthcare, but like many, they’re facing steep financial and systemic barriers to accessing the care they need. Even with careful budgeting and exploring every option, the out-of-pocket costs are still too high to manage alone.
This fundraiser will help cover:
- Surgery and hospital costs
- Post-op supplies and care
- Time off work for recovery
- Safe aftercare and support
If you can donate, share, or offer kind words, it would mean the world. Every bit of support helps bring them closer to this life-changing care.
Thank you for showing up — for healthcare workers, for people in your community, and for helping someone move from surviving to truly thriving.
With gratitude,
A Friend and Ally
