Support Korrie’s Journey to Wholeness

Hi friends, community, and kind strangers,

This is not the path I imagined for myself, asking for financial support so publicly, but I find myself at a moment where time, systems, and realities are colliding, and I need your help. A journey I thought we had months to prepare for, but has now become just weeks to get on a schedule before December 31st.

I’m fundraising for gender-affirming top surgery, care that is both medically necessary and life-affirming. This step is part of a larger, intentional plan I’ve been working toward with the support of an incredible team of mental and physical healthcare providers. We’ve carefully mapped out a route that supports my body, mind, and future. But the final stretch is one I can’t do alone.

Though I have insurance, I'm racing against steep deductibles, shifting premiums, and policies that are rapidly becoming more hostile to people like me, especially here, in a state and national climate where trans lives and healthcare are under relentless attack. The urgency is not just medical, it’s political, personal, and deeply human.

This fundraiser will help cover:

I want to be clear: This is not a choice of luxury. It’s a choice of survival and alignment, the chance to live in a body that feels like mine. The chance to breathe a little deeper, sleep a little easier, and move through the world without the constant weight of dysphoria pressing down.

It’s also not lost on me that even having a platform to fundraise is a privilege. I carry that with humility. I carry it in solidarity with every trans person who has been made to wait, fight, or go without care. My hope is that one day, none of us will have to crowdfund our health. That we’ll build a world where care is a given, not a battleground.

Until then, I’m here, humbly asking: If you have the capacity, please contribute. If you don’t, sharing this campaign is just as powerful. Every dollar, every repost, every kind word, it all matters.

Thank you for being part of this journey with me. We are hoping to raise a total of $5k, although GFM set an automatic initial goal of 2. Your kindness is a gift in itself.

In solidarity, with gratitude, and with so much hope,

Korrie
