Help William Meet CoryxKenshin at Anime NYC!
Donation protected
To keep it short and simple:
Hello, I’m William. I am 15 as of June 2, and I recently graduated from 8th grade!
The one creator who’s pushed me to stay positive, laugh at myself, and keep going is CoryxKenshin. He’s finally appearing at Anime NYC (Aug 21-24, 2025), and meeting him would be the BEST gift before I start high school.
My Goal: Raise $2,250 by Aug 20 to cover:
• Round-trip drive Michigan ↔ New York (18 hrs)
• 2 hotel nights near the Javits Center
• 2 convention badges (for me + my older brother chaperone)
• Food, parking & NYC transit
• ⛽ Gas / car mileage
• ❤️ A small thank-you for my brother’s time and safety watch
Why I’m fundraising: My parents have given me full permission, but we can’t afford the trip ourselves. Instead of just wishing, I’m asking my community for help, and promising to pay it forward with positivity just like Cory does. Every $5 and share matters. Even if you can’t donate, sharing this link gets me closer. Really, I am EXTREMELY grateful for everything.
I’ll post video updates, keep receipts, and share photos from the con so you see exactly where your support goes.
Thank you all SO much for the support. I can’t explain how much it means to me.
