Lee's Top Surgery

Donation protected
Update: My need has been met! There are many orgs and bail funds  that urgently need support right now, and if you've come here with resources to donate, I encourage you to consider them ahead of this fundraiser!

I'm having top surgery, and I could use your help!

One indefinite postponement and three reschedulings later, I'll be getting top surgery here in Brooklyn on June 5th (with Dr. Alyssa Golas, through NYU). Very little feels joyful these days, but I am deeply happy to be moving forward and to do this good thing for my body.

Originally, I hadn't planned on raising money for this surgery. COVID-19 changed all that, unfortunately, and changes to my health insurance and lost income have me in a tough place, particularly as a performing artist whose livelihood is on indefinite hiatus.

These funds will help offset surgery-related expenses and my health insurance premiums (which trigintupled in May, a word I had to look up). I'm deeply grateful for donations of any size.

If you've read this far and you don't know me and have found this fundraiser through the signal-boosting of some generous friend, hey! I'm a 31 year-old transmasculine queer living in Brooklyn. I make theatre , usually, except for right now. The photo up top is of me drinking a lot of milk at work.

Thank you.
