The Down There Affair - Toronto

I'm fundraising for health equity for women.

Remember when women couldn't talk about breast cancer? How they couldn't get access to care? How the treatments were terrible and so was the prognosis? And remember how the breast cancer walks came along and changed the conversation? Today health outcomes for women diagnosed with breast cancer are astronomically better than they were 30 years ago.

We aim to do the same thing for women's below-the-belt health. Currently, on average it takes 7 years for a woman to get diagnosed with endometriosis. 7 years! And 1 in 10 women suffer with it. That's inexcusable, and we're going to change it. Your generous donation can help. Thank you!

Why am I doing this?

Wednesday 17th Jun
It's a fair question. In two words: Righteous indignation. Why does it take 7 years on average for a woman to be diagnosed with endometriosis, when it affects 1 in 10 women? And why does only 7% of medical research go to treating women? I think we all know the answers - and that's what I aim to change. Won't you help me by making a donation?

Thank you to my donors
