Help me get to Oklahoma :)
Donation protected
My name is Kalina Stepto and I have recently been selected along with 16 other girls to travel to Oklahoma USA to represent Australia competing in the 11th ISF Junior Womens Softball World Championships (9-15 August 2015).
I am 18 years old and playing softball is what I love and have loved since I was a little girl. I first discovered softball when my parets finally realised I was not cut out for ballet or gymnastics and decided to put me in my godparents blast ball team which was my first taste of what the sport was like.Ever since the first day I started playing I have not only played for my Represntative asscociaton Manly, at many state championships, but also my State, NSW, since 2012. And it is now with great honour and pride that I am able to put on the Green and Gold and represnt my country!!
We all play this game because it's what we love but over the years a lot of time, hard work, dedications and sacrifices are made by us as players but also by the people who have contributed greatly to getting us where we are today- our parents.
While it is a huge honour that I have been selected to represent our country this trip also comes with a great expense and unfortunately due Softball being removed from the Olympic program the little funding that was availalbe is now no longer being offered. This means that the entire trip has to be funded by ourselves.
I created this fundraising page in the hope that my extended family and friends will help raise some money and that I may be able to take some of the pressure off my parents. Absolutely any type of contribution, big or small, you make is a great help and myself and my family would be truly grateful. It would also be a great help if youcould help me get my page out there by sharing it as much as you can.
To everyone who has helped me get here you are all amazing people and I love you all!!
Thankyou for any help you can give to me and my family :) Kalina Stepto xoxo
