Hi everyone. Rey and I will be traveling to San Francisco for Rey to get gender-affirming top surgery in September 2025. This surgery is something he’s thought about, dreamed about, and worked towards for a long time. It’s not just a cosmetic change — it’s a critical step in aligning his body with who he truly is.

Unfortunately, he will be on unpaid leave from work for about 3-4 weeks. We will have to stay in an Airbnb till his 1-week post-op appointment. Between travel expenses, Airbnb, recovery supplies, and time off work, the costs add up quickly.

I’m asking for help from our community — friends, family, and allies — to reach his goal of $2,000. Every single donation, no matter the size, gets him closer to a future where he can feel comfortable, confident, and at home in his body.

If you’re not able to donate, sharing this page means the world to me too. Thank you for your love, support, and solidarity — it truly makes a difference.
