Throughout the year, we will be providing ongoing support to Alejandro and Izaac, our other finalists, through professional assistance in navigating insurance questions and opportunities, fundraising, and other avenues. We are hopeful to connect them to the care they need as well.

We wish that we could fund all of our applicants, and hope to provide even more support in the future. We will accept applications for the 2019 cycle beginning November 1. Learn more about the program

 

Thank You

To our donors, volunteers and supporters: thank you so much for your generosity in your donations, time, and talent to make this all possible. We cannot do this work without you.

We are thankful to our partners at Transcend Legal for tirelessly working to get people transgender-related health care covered under insurance. We will be working closely with them and our recipient Michael in the months to come.

Special thanks to the team at tkitts for pledging to give each of our recipients a free after-surgery care and supply kits.

Finally, we wish to also gratefully acknowledge the generous donations of this year’s sponsors:
