The Debt Gala was founded to fight for economic justice and stand up for those who can’t afford the rising costs of care.

This year, we’re proud to be raising money for organizations working to relieve medical debt and ensure access to life-saving, gender-affirming care for the Black transgender community:

Undue Medical Debt

Buys and eliminates medical debt—every $10 donated erases an average of $1,000, freeing families in need from financial devastation.

For The Gworls

Offers crucial financial aid for gender-affirming procedures, medication, and medical expenses for Black trans folks.
