Hello! My name is Liam and I am a 24 year old transgender man who is pursuing gender affirming top surgery. I have had a slow start to my transition, not being able to begin hormone replacement therapy until I was 23.

Now, with a year on testosterone under my belt, I am working towards raising funds to get a double mastectomy to improve my quality of life and confidence in my body to better match my gender identity. I live in a state that has been pushing a great deal of anti-LGBT legislation, and unfortunately, my insurance plan refuses to cover this operation. I am reaching out to the help of the general public and my community for assistance with this goal to benefit my mental health and safety as a transgender individual. I greatly appreciate any support you can provide, especially coming in to pride month. I hope that your support can help me feel more proud as a visible trans man.
