Operation Transformation

Operation Transformation is our annual fundraiser for our Gender-Affirming Care Grant  and a joyful celebration of self-expression, community care, and resilience. The event brings together drag performers and other LGBTQIA+ artists to uplift the voices of trans and gender-diverse individuals, honoring the brilliance that makes our community shine.

More than a performance showcase, Operation Transformation directly fuels our gender-affirming care initiatives. Funds raised at the event provide essential support for trans and gender-diverse people in the Athens area who face financial, insurance, and geographic barriers to accessing the care they deserve. By transforming entertainment into impact, Operation Transformation helps ensure that lifesaving, identity-affirming healthcare is within reach for more members of our community.

Each year, this event stands as a powerful reminder that celebration can be a catalyst for change: when our community shows up for one another, transformation becomes possible.
