Van's Vital Surgery: Let's Make It Happen

Van is getting FFS!!

This GoFundMe is set up to support her in paying for the cost of surgery.

Hi, lovely people!

This is Felix, here to inform you that Philly's number one sweetheart just got approved for FFS (facial feminization surgery)! Van has been waiting for several years, researching multiple providers, waiting for the right one, and going through an extensive and expensive process to get surgery approved. However, we've only just now realized that her insurance deductible is $6,000, making it inaccessible without community support. Additionally, there are other fees and factors that increase the cost of surgery. Van is blessed to have work that supports her taking off, and while some of that time spent healing is paid, some of it will not be. This fund will also support her recovery.

I love this woman dearly, as I'm sure many of you all do as well, and I know how much this would mean for her. Gender-affirming care is life-saving and absolutely necessary for safety, security, and overall quality of life. So we're asking that you give whatever you can to make this happen. Her surgery date is scheduled for September 5th, which is soon approaching. So, please share widely to get the word out. If you can't send $50, send $20. If you can't send $5, send $2. If you can't send money, share as widely as possible with folks who might.
