Hello everyone! My name is Imani Russell (they/them) and I am a Black/biracial, disabled, trans+nonbinary+queer actor, singer, and writer. I have been on a journey to receive gender-affirming surgery for the last 7 years and it is finally happening! On April 1st, 2021 (TWO WEEKS!) I will be undergoing life-changing top surgery and I am so freaking excited.
Initially my top surgery consult was scheduled for July of this year and I was fortunate to have all my appointments bumped up! However, this meant that I had less time to save money on my own. I am asking for financial assistance, as I am a freelance artist and will be unable to work (and unable to predict when I will get a job post-surgery) for around 2 months as I recover.
I would appreciate any and all donations and shares to this campaign, and I am so thankful for the support I've received thus far. I am listing a breakdown of where the money will go, and anything that surpasses my needs will be donated directly to other Black trans people.
Breakdown --
Surgery costs: $7,150 (price subject to change after I receive my final bill)
Rent for 2 months: $1500
Therapy costs for 2 months: $640
Grocery costs for 2 months: $400
Other living costs/bills: $310
Thank you so much!
Love,
Imani
