Denver's Top Surgery
Donation protected
Hi I'm Denver, from Adelaide in so called Australia, not Colorado, and I'm getting Top Surgery on the 2nd July!
It's so soon which is exciting but it's going to cost close to $16,000 and that doesn't include the cost of living for the month I have to take off from teaching, though I have planned it over school holidays to reduce the cost of recovery. I don't have much saved because of rent being wildly expensive in Adelaide and teaching not having a lucrative salary. However, I am fortunate enough to be able to borrow what I cannot raise, but I'm just trying to reduce how much debt I go into to get my body to reflect who I am inside (below- this gay cowboi).
I feel bad asking for money when there's so many other worthy causes at this time that need support, but I wouldn't ask for what I wouldn't be willing to give to myself, so here I am asking for support after years of giving to other trans gender-affirming surgeries... There were so many signs!
Why you should give me $$$-
- Claim your title of "Queer ally of the year" and/or assuage your cis guilt for society's ongoing transphobia
- I run a monthly fun community line dancing event for free, so you're not just supporting me but other abominable queers and friends of queers
- You have a six figure income and don't need to think twice about buying coffee out
- I do my part to contribute to worthy causes regularly including donating directly to local first nations people
- You don't need to get blind drunk this weekend and you can spare me some coin instead
- I will trade you some of my artwork or a shirt if you ask nicely (and donate more than the cost of making and posting those things)
