Endo Excision for All is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to ensuring individuals with endometriosis can access excision surgery, the gold standard of care. We provide direct financial assistance for surgical consults and excision procedures, support patient fundraising, and contribute to community programs like menstrual product distribution. We also engage in advocacy, meeting with lawmakers and coalition partners to push for systemic change, including the establishment of an insurance code for excision surgery so that, one day, access will be equitable and affordable for all patients.

We measure our impact by the number of individuals we are able to assist with endometriosis excision surgery each year. We provide regular updates to our donors through social media and an annual report, which highlights the stories of those we've helped and the progress we've made towards our goals.

In our first year of operation, Endo Excision for All has already provided direct financial support for patient surgical consults and contributed to patient fundraising campaigns. Advocacy work, including meetings with lawmakers in Washington, D.C., is carried out through volunteer efforts and the founder's personal resources, not donated funds. We also expanded community support by helping provide menstrual products to those in need. Looking ahead, we have set the ambitious goal of funding a full excision surgery ($20,000) in the coming year, demonstrating our growing capacity to directly impact patients' lives while continuing to advocate for systemic insurance reform.

While there are other organizations dedicated to endometriosis awareness and support, Endo Excision for All is unique in its focus on providing financial assistance specifically for excision surgery. We believe that this targeted approach allows us to make the greatest impact on the lives of those suffering from endometriosis as most patients cannot access this out-of-network surgery. We also work to advocate for policy change, which includes fighting for an insurance code for excision surgery in the United States.
