Help Katerina Hill Get to the World Skate Games!

I am raising funds to afford to be able to go to the 2022 Argentina World Skate Games, which is currently the highest level of downhill longboard racing.

I have already fundraised some money and have calculated what else I need to cover the rest of my travel costs, accommodations, health insurance and safety gear/equipment. Thank you so much to everyone who has donated to me so far :)

Unfortunately, the government and Skate Canada will not be helping anyone on the team financially, so we are all responsible for coming up with the funds ourselves.

Lots of hard work has gone into where I am today. Becoming the number 1 Canadian downhill longboarder in Canada in only 2 years was only possible because of the massive support I’ve had from my friends from Abby Skate School.

I’d like to thank my friends and family who have supported me along the way and am incredibly excited to have the opportunity to represent my country at the 2022 Argentina World Skate Games this year. I am so happy I found downhill longboarding; it has brought me so much joy in my life and puts the biggest smile on my face when I am able to skate down hills at speed with my friends.

If you would like to donate to the whole Canadian Downhill longboard/luge team as a whole, you can donate through this link: https://my.charitableimpact.com/groups/world-skate-games-team-canada-2022

Another way to support our team would be through this event, where a portion of the proceeds will go towards the whole team. It will be at the Roxy in Vancouver on the 22nd of October and will start at 7 pm. Tickets will be $22.60:

In the event that I raise more funds than needed, I will put the extra funds towards an individual or individuals on my team that are in need of funds as well.
