Top surgery recovery for Black Philly activist

Donation protected
Hey friends!  My friend that I met through planning a community action fair in Philly back in 2017 is having top surgery on August 18th.  There isn’t enough support for Black trans people who have disabilities, and they more than deserve it.

This person has been giving back to the community for years.  They’re a ceaseless advocate for people with disabilities, trans folks, and Black and Brown people.  When the COVID-19 crisis hit, they organized an ongoing mutual aid program to get necessary and hard to find supplies to Black transgender Philadelphians.  Since then they have also founded an organization dedicated to providing funds to Black LGBTQIA Philadelphians, with thousands of dollars being redistributed in the past month, including: money to buy a trans woman a C-PAP machine, money to help cover the costs of a wheelchair for a disabled trans person, and SO MUCH MORE.

Here’s one of their future goals, in their own words:

“I plan on creating a place for and by Black and Brown LGBTQIA people that have disabilities of all kind because a place like that doesn’t exists. Somewhere where they can go to get help with job applications, socialize with other people with disabilities and work out at their own pace. “

So let’s support them during their recovery from top surgery! Let’s give financial support to this person who’s always thinking of others.  Let’s surprise them on the day of their surgery, so they can rest and be taken care of while they’re recovering. 

Thank you. <3
