Help Me Go to Ecuador For PanAms

My name is Matthew Hillyer.  I am 12 years old and have been doing karate for over 10 years now.  My goal at karate tournaments is to always do the best I can, and winning a gold medal is just an added bonus.  This year, I competed for the first time in the 12-13 year old +50kg elite division.  I faced some very tough and talented athletes.  But with my Sensei, my parents and sister, and my whole dojo family and friends  encouraging me and supporting me, and cheering loudly for me as I fought on stage, I fought my best and won the gold medal.   I secured a spot on the USA Karate Jr. National Team who will travel to Ecuador for the Jr. Pan Am Championships from August 22 - 28, 2016.  This is a very important event for me because I will be representing my country, my dojo, and my family and friends.

The money I raise from this campaign helps with travel expenses for me and a chaperone.   Please help me go to Ecuador by making a donation today.  Any amount helps and is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
