Support Jae's Mission for Fat Liberation

Donation protected
Hello friends,

For years, I’ve been dedicated to advocating for the rights, dignity, and empowerment of fat people—especially when it comes to travel, healthcare, and mental health. As a plus-size creator, I’ve used my platform to challenge harmful narratives, expose medical bias, and provide resources to help others navigate the world as fat individuals. Whether it’s addressing the lack of size-inclusive travel options, fighting against discrimination in healthcare, or raising awareness about the mental health struggles fat people face, I’ve poured my heart into this work.

But despite the impact I’ve made, I’ve never asked for financial support in this way. I’ve sacrificed a lot—time, energy, and my own personal well-being—to keep pushing for this work. I’ve faced personal and financial challenges, and I’ve kept moving forward because I believe in this mission. Now, I’m reaching out to you, my community, to help me continue—and elevate—this work.

This GoFundMe is not about asking for help just for me, but for the mission of fat liberation and empowerment that I’ve dedicated my life to. Your donations will directly support the following initiatives:

How Your Donation Will Be Used:
Your support will directly contribute to the following:

Advocacy Work & Outreach: The time and effort I dedicate to reaching out to local businesses, healthcare professionals, and community leaders to educate them on the needs of fat individuals. Your donations will fund the hours I spend organizing campaigns, hosting events (both virtual and in-person), and engaging in one-on-one consultations through emails and DMs, offering advice and resources to those in need.

Data Collection & Surveys: Gathering crucial data through surveys, interviews, and outreach to better understand the experiences of fat individuals in healthcare, travel, and other areas. This will allow me to create resources and advocate for concrete change based on real-world experiences.

Public Advocacy & Awareness: Funding materials for advocacy work in public spaces, such as signs, flyers, and banners to challenge fatphobia and raise awareness. Your support will help fund on-the-ground campaigns, including conducting street interviews and interactive demonstrations to engage the public, spark conversations, and provide educational resources in real time.

Building Free Resources: Developing and distributing free resources, like guides, articles, and toolkits, to help fat individuals navigate the challenges they face. These materials will cover topics like self-advocacy in healthcare, how to travel comfortably and confidently as a plus-size person, and ways to build resilience against fatphobia.

Amplifying My Advocacy Work: Supporting my ability to continue as a full-time advocate. This includes covering everyday expenses like equipment and resources I need to create content, maintain my platform, and keep pushing this mission forward. It will allow me to stay focused on creating impactful, sustainable change without being bogged down by the financial strain of doing it all on my own.

Why Your Support Matters:

I’ve never been the type to ask for donations, and it’s not easy for me to do so now. But the truth is, I’ve poured so much of myself into this mission—sacrificing time, money, and emotional energy—because I believe in the importance of this work. But to make a bigger impact and take this mission to the next level, I need your help.

If you’ve found my content valuable, if you believe in fat liberation, and if you want to see real, lasting change in how fat people are treated in travel, healthcare, and beyond, I ask that you consider donating to this campaign.

Every dollar will go toward building a world that’s more inclusive, more empathetic, and better overall for fat people. If you can’t donate, sharing this campaign with your networks helps just as much.

Together, we can make an impact. Together, we can change the world for fat people everywhere.

Thank you for supporting me, this mission, and the future of fat liberation.

With love and gratitude,

Jae
