What is Operation Blossom?
Our friend Rebecca is journeying to Thailand on Nov. 12 for her gender reassignment surgery, and as a community, we are raising funds to send a supportive companion along with her!
Individuals as well as organizations such as the Fairness Campaign (www.fairness.org), the Women In Transition (www.witky.org) are collaborating to make this dream a reality. We've already connected Rebecca with a volunteer to accompany her, so now we need YOUR help to make sure the volunteer has travel accommodations, lodging, and food as she walks with Rebecca on her transformative journey.
We only have three weeks to raise the funds, so we need your help right away!
What We Need & What You Get
We need at least $2000 to make sure all expenses are covered, but more would be great. Give what you can, share the message with others, spread the love!
When you donate, you'll get a thank-you note and the satisfaction of knowing that you helped fund this important project.
Any money left over from this round of Operation Blossom may be used to help fund similar projects in the future.
Other Ways You Can Help
If you can't contribute financially, or if you'd like to do more, you can get involved in a number of other ways:
- share our message with your friends, family, and co-workers, and ask them to contribute
- share a link to this fundraising page on your personal social networks like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and more.
- purchase a t-shirt designed by Rebecca and wear it to show your support! (Hurry, there's a limited supply of these shirts! Email Lindsay at lgargotto@gmail.com to order one.)
