What charity can help me with my Gynecomastia or self image problem?

I have Gynecomastia, it is a condition of large female like breasts on a male body. This is not caused by excessive weight in my case as I weight 165 lbs and am 6 ft tall..the weight problem one is callsed Psudo-Gynecomastia because it isn’t really gynecomastia. I was wondering who I can get help from to have surgery or help my self image. I don’t get involved in social activity or have a job because I used to be teased in school all the time which caused me to go into hiding for years. I am 24 now still living at home and can’t find anyone to help me, I don’t know what to do. I tried to force myself to get over it but I can’t, I did wear an ace bandage to compress them flat and that gave me a large confidence boost but those are so uncomfortable to wrap around me. I just wish to look like a normal male, any ideas?
I Know certain conditions or drug use can cause this, I have never taken drugs and I am not sure if I have a bad liver or hyper thyroid but this is what I am wondering, what charity can help me as I do not have money.
I have researched the condition for several years, I know plastic surgery can solve it but thats like $5000 or so which I do not have, I’ve tried talking to charities before they just ignore me. I wrote to Oprah and she ignored me, I wrote to dr phil and he ignored me, I have no insurance this is why I am seeking charity help. Sorry I did not make this clear before =\
