Hello friends, family, and kind-hearted supporters,

My name is Drew, and I am on a journey toward living fully and authentically in my body. For as long as I can remember, I’ve struggled with the disconnect between how the world sees me and how I know myself to be. After years of reflection, therapy, and support from my community, I am ready to take the next step in my transition: top surgery.

Top surgery is more than a medical procedure - it’s a life-saving, affirming step that will allow me to breathe easier, move through the world with confidence, and live without the constant weight of dysphoria. This surgery means freedom: the freedom to exist comfortably in my own skin, to show up authentically in my relationships, and to live the life I have always envisioned for myself.

Unfortunately, this kind of care is expensive, and while I’ve been working hard to save, I cannot do it alone. Between medical costs, travel expenses, recovery supplies, and lost wages during recovery, the total comes to approximately $13500.

Here’s a breakdown of the costs:

Surgery & hospital fees: $4000

Travel/lodging: $100

Post-op supplies & recovery: $100

Lost wages while healing: $9300

I am humbly asking for your help. Every donation - no matter the size - brings me one step closer to this goal. If you’re unable to give financially, you can still help by sharing this campaign with your network.

Your support will not just cover costs - it will give me the gift of wholeness, dignity, and peace. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for believing in me, walking with me, and helping me step into the person I truly am.

With gratitude and love,

Drew
