Together we've raised more than $350,000 to support trans+ communities across the Midwest.
Every lifter, volunteer, spectator & donor have gotten us here.
What if one day of lifting could make a long-term impact on our community?
Drop Deadlift Gorgeous is a charity deadlift event where athletes, first-time lifters, volunteers, and spectators come together to raise money for trans+ and gender-expansive communities across the Midwest.
We created this event because we believe trans+ people deserve the same opportunities to experience the confidence, friendship, and personal growth that sports can offer.
At a time when trans+ people - especially young athletes - are being excluded from sports in many parts of the country, we're choosing to build something else: a joyful, welcoming event that raises real dollars for organizations doing vital work in our communities.
For one day, strangers become teammates. First-time lifters stand beside seasoned powerlifters. Volunteers, local businesses, and nonprofits come together to build the kind of sports community we all deserve—one where trans+ people are safe, celebrated, and fully belong.
Every lifter raises money, but they also send a message:
Trans+ people belong in sports.
There's no right way to be part of Drop Deadlift Gorgeous.
Lift heavy. Lift light. Volunteer. Donate. Cheer until you're hoarse.
Whether you're here to compete, support a loved one, or stand up for
trans+ inclusion in sports, you're helping build a better future.
