Adaptive Sports for Ariel Desert Games AZ

Hello, this is Ariel. I am 16 years old and attend Foothill Technology High School. I would like to participate in the Desert Games in Arizona. This is going to give me an opportunity to assess my ability to compete with others who have similar limb differences as a para athlete in track and field. My goal is to make it to National Competition. My hope is that this will pave the way to one day compete in the Para Olympics.

In order to reach this goal I am asking for your financial assistance for travel expenses to Arizona, lodging, and meals. I love my community and am very much involved as an athlete, Student Council, ELAC, and volunteer. I participate in various sports, my passion is competing in throwing discus and shot put. I hope you share this vision with me and with your support I will reach my goal. Thank you for sharing this journey with me, my family and my friends.
