For the past two years, Tobly McSmith has been self-funding this service. But we need your help to keep up with the overwhelming demand.
Stay Gold Foundation was created by Tobly McSmith, a transgender man, playwright, and author of young adult novels about love, staying true to yourself, and transgender issues. The idea for the fund was born during the writing of Stay Gold, a story about a transgender boy surviving high school in Texas and saving up for his gender-affirming health care. During the writing of Stay Gold, Tobly realized that there was much more to be done for the community. He's pledged as much money as possible, but we need your help to continue.
Please help! Even $5 helps us toward our goal!
