Top Surgery

Organized by Courtney Whitten
Update 3
Hi!
Here's another surgery update!
For those who don't know, the plan is to get top surgery in August. Now, this depends on if I can get a job in the next couple weeks because I was recently laid off.
Therefore, I am fundraising.
My surgery is $9,000, plus about $1,000 for plane costs, room costs, and food costs.
I live in Seattle, WA and the surgeon is in San Francisco, CA.
I am trying to raise $6,000. A VERY lofty goal.
Here's the breakdown of what I've raised in about a month:
  • Chip In donations come to $339.
  • Etsy Shop orders come to $92.25
  • The change jar in my apartment has about $10.
So that comes to about $442.
While this is SO WONDERFUL, and greatly appreciated, I still need quite a bit more.
I have an Underworks tank top binder (SM, black) that I plan to sell, and plugs and tapers for ear stretching from size 0-7/16 that I'd like to sell.
There are constant updated in my Etsy shop, and I'm always down for any amount of donations that I can receive.
I really appreciate this everyone.
Thank you so much for your spare change, and please let me know if you have any questions for me. Love,
Scrappy

Thanks for watching! There's only one update, I have a tentative surgery date for August 1! This still depends on whether or not I get a job this month. I have an interview on Sunday so we'll see what's up...
Love, Scrappy
Day One was a HUGE success!
Hey everyone!
This is just an update for my top surgery fund.
So far I have made over $100 on the first day of my fund being up. This is incredible.There will be video updates the first week of each month thanking the kind souls who donated that month, and giving general surgery updates. The link for my ChipIn account is on the sidebar of my blog. But I will also throw it in here.
Updates
I will also be updating monthly with how much I've made off of my Etsy shop, and through physical cash donation, as well as any fundraisers. I will also be posting a video to put a face to a cause sometime this week.

Thank you so much!
Hey everyone!
Welcome to my ChipIn page. This donation request is for my top surgery in San Francisco this summer. I have yet to hear back from the doctor with my specific date, so the end date is subject to change.
The surgery itself (using a keyhole procedure) will be $6,000 but I also have about $3,000 in extra fees like local anesthesia and surgeon fees.
On top of that I need to get there and stay in a hotel for 8 days.
I do not expect to raise the entire amount. But when setting up a payment plan with the office I'd like to be able to put down half.
Anybody who knows me knows how long I have been waiting for this surgery, and how much I need it.
Any contributions at all will be greatly appreciated. Even if I only raise $100, that's $100 less that I have to pay.
Thank you so much for reading.
Love, Courtney (Scrappy)
