I am raising funds for my top surgery. I have been transgender for a very long time, and for as long as I can remember, I have not felt comfortable in my own skin, and this surgery feels like an important step toward finally feeling more at home in myself.

Now that I am about 18, I am finally able to have the surgery that I believe will help my overall mental health. This is the right time for me to take this step, but I cannot afford it on my own. I work part time in a deli, and even while working, the cost of top surgery is more than I can manage by myself.

Every donation will go toward helping me pay for top surgery. If you are able to give or share this fundraiser, it would mean so much to me. Your support would help me move closer to a surgery that I believe will make a real difference in my life.
