Our beloved Maxi passed away following complications from cancer treatment.
She fought with everything she had. Through surgeries, treatment, setbacks and hope, she showed the same courage and determination that defined her life on and off the stage.
Maxi wasn’t just a drag superstar. She was a an icon, a worldwide superstar, a sister, a loud laugh in a quiet room, and a fierce advocate for her community. She gave her time, her talent and her heart to so many of us. She built us up and was the heartbeat of our community. She made us feel seen. She reminded us to be bold, and to take up space.
Now it’s our turn to show up for her.
We are raising funds to cover funeral and memorial costs, and to give Maxi the send-off she deserves, one that reflects the colour, pride, and power she brought into our world.
If you’re able to contribute, no matter the amount, it will help ease the financial burden during an already heartbreaking time. If you can’t donate, please consider sharing this page and holding Maxi and her loved ones in your thoughts.
Thank you for loving her. Thank you for honouring her. Let’s celebrate her life the way she lived it, unapologetically and together.
