Help Florida Trans Man Get Top Surgery!

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Jojo, I'm a gay nonbinary trans man living in the state of Florida who needs your help.

I started my journey with HRT back in 2021 after a near-lifelong desire to transition and a battle with a chronic illness. I have never felt more free or comfortable in my body than I do these days. I am smiling more, laughing more, and I feel like the person I'm truly meant to be. However, due to the current political climate in Florida, things are very tense.

I live in an area of Florida that is very red-leaning, and I have encountered a few events of queerphobia at my place of work from customers and coworkers alike. While some management has backed me up, I still do not feel entirely safe. Access to my HRT had been cut off, as it has been for hundreds of others in the state in 2023. I worry about my ability to seek trans healthcare as long as I continue to live in Florida, especially due to the current election results.

If possible, I would like to take another step in my transition before things get any worse.

The current estimate is subject to change as I undergo consultations with surgeons.
My insurance will not cover the procedure or its associated costs. I am hoping that I can make at least half of what I will be billed so I can look into financing options. The estimate covers:
  • Consultation and appointment fees (Estimated $250)
  • The cost of surgery and anesthesia (Estimated between $9,500 to $11,500)
  • The cost of the hospital stay (Estimated $2000)
  • The cost of travel and lodging for myself and my fiance (Estimated $800)
  • The cost of the time I will have to take off work to recover (Estimated between $1,400 and $4,200)

Any money that does not go toward the cost of my transition or care will be donated back into the Florida trans community. I would like to help my local trans community who are also struggling in these tumultuous times.
