Hello! My name is Nico. I am a Filipino and indigenous trans boy who loves to make art, learn about nature, and make people smile. I have identified as a boy since I was nine-years-old, but I struggled with a super religious and unaccepting mom. Now that I am 18, I can finally fully transition and be my true self.

 

Top surgery, unfortunately, is not covered by my insurance. With an unsupportive mom and being a student, I do not have the means to cover the cost of the surgery out of pocket. I have been working almost every day since I was 16, but I was not able to save enough. My dad is also recovering from a stay in the hospital for atrial fibrillation, so he is unable to help me with the costs. 

The costs are as follows:
$15,585 for the surgery
$935 for anasthesia 
$3,575 for post-op recovery 

With the lack of help, I am collecting donations. Anything is so immensely appreciated.

 

I have wanted this surgery for almost a decade. It will drastically change my life. Please consider donating or sharing!

 

Thank you for taking the time to read this! Have a wonderful day :)
