I am Sintu Bagui, a Bahujan transperson and daughter of a sex worker. I have been involved in transgender and sex worker rights movements for fifteen years. During the Covid pandemic, I partnered with civil society groups, educational institutions, political parties and various state agencies to bring emergency resources to my community. I also wrote several appeals for funds to serve my community. But today I am appealing for funds for myself. I have been living with gender dysphoria for a long time and it has severely affected my mental health. It is becoming increasingly difficult to work for my community when I am myself in very depressive state. I have very little savings as I am also a provider for my family and several trans community sisters who have no stable livelihood options but even then, with great difficulty, I have started my medical transition. But now I have no more resources and hence I am appealing to my friends and well wishers for funds so that I can get the body I desire. I am going to undergo top surgery but that will require a lot of resources, not only for the surgery for the breast implants but also for aftercare and health maintenance in the long term. There are some additional procedures I need to undergo, and I also need some allowance to provide for myself and my dependents during the period I have to rest post-surgery. Please help in whichever capacity you can by contributing this fund raiser and sharing it. Here is the budget break-up:
Surgery for breast implantation:     180000
Medicines                                      :        50000
Laser for whole body                   :      130000
Hair Transplant                              :      120000
Living Expenses during period
away from work                            :       120000
Total:      600000
Please come forward to support my cause. Any contribution will be of immense help. Do contribute and share this crowdfunding fundraiser link with your friends and family.
