"12 Years and One Dream: My Taekwondo Journey"

Ever since I can remember, martial arts has always played a large role in my life. At first my parents put me in taekwondo to help me learn discipline, but as time went on, I fell in love with the lifestyle of martial arts, particularly taekwondo. For over 12 years I have competed at the next level in hopes that someday I may reach the ultimate goal of World Champion. For me, this is the final test in solidifying all that I have worked for so far in this sport.

That being said, as I have grown older (and even more mature) I have taken it upon myself to pay for more of MY STUFF. I do what I can.

I have some great parents. Two really awesome parents! They have been there with me at every school recital, every conference, every sporting event. You name it! Taekwondo has been part of my life for over 10 years. Along with other sports, hobbies and interests it has not been cheap making sure I have a great childhood experience. I promised myself that if I made it to this point I would raise as much money as possible (ON MY OWN) and only ask my parents to cover what I could not raise.

However, the costs for travel and entry fees are significant, more than my part-time job can cover and I kindly ask for your support in making this journey possible through a donation. Your generosity would not only help cover these expenses but also serve as a powerful vote of confidence in my pursuit of excellence in taekwondo

This is an exciting opportunity to compete at the Taekwondo World Championships — this is a dream that will allow me to represent my community, the community that has supported me, on a global stage. Your prayers and support will be greatly appreciated.
