Manniversary

About

It’s about that time of year again where folks from around the country come out and help celebrate Dezjorn Gauthier’s “manniversary” in style! Dezjorn International LLC will be hosting a fundraiser in the windy city to help raise awareness of the transgender community. For those of you that aren’t familiar with the term “manniversary” it’s the date where most of us of trans-masculine experience share our authentic self with the world. On April 21, 2015 with just 28 guest and a silent auction it all began. We are proud to say that today it’s turned into the biggest private fundraiser of Dezjorn International charitable programs, and grants which benefits 501c3 organizations nationwide, and community members at large are recognized. This year’s goal is to reach $5,000 and with your support we can make it happen. Here’s to another year of celebration and fundraising!
