Hello Friends, Family, and Fellow Sports Enthusiasts,
We are reaching out to you with an exciting opportunity to be a part of something truly special. As dedicated Albertan ski jumpers with a passion for our sport, we’re determined to push the limits of what’s possible and make our mark in the world of ski jumping. However, to turn our dreams into reality, we need your support.
Why We Need Your Help
Ski jumping is not just about soaring through the air—it’s about dedication, hard work, and relentless training. Our journey involves rigorous practice, lots of travel outside of Canada, specialized coaching, and essential equipment, all of which come with significant costs. To continue our progress and reach new heights, we need funds to cover:
- Training Camps: From summer training sessions on plastic hills to winter camps on snow, these programs are crucial for our skill development and competitive edge.
- Coaching and Expertise: Access to experienced coaches and sport psychologists who help refine our techniques and mental preparation.
- Equipment: Maintaining and upgrading our ski jumping gear to ensure safety and performance.
- Travel Expenses: Competing in events often requires travel to different locations, which can be a substantial financial burden.
Our Goal
Our immediate goal is to raise $10,000, which will directly fund:
- Training Camps and Facilities: Covering the cost of camps and access to top-notch training facilities.
- Expert Coaching: Providing compensation for specialized coaching and support.
- Equipment Upgrades: Ensuring we have the best gear to enhance our performance and safety.
- Travel Costs: Assisting with the expenses associated with traveling to competitions and events.
Why Your Support Matters
Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference. Your support will not only help us reach our financial goals but also inspire us to strive for excellence. By contributing, you’re investing in athletes who are committed to giving their all, pushing boundaries, and representing our community with pride.
How You Can Help
- Donate: Every dollar brings us closer to our goal. Consider making a donation and sharing our campaign with your network.
- Share: Spread the word about our fundraiser through social media, email, or word of mouth.
- Encourage: Cheer us on and offer words of encouragement. Your support fuels our passion and determination.
Thank You Very Much!
We are incredibly grateful for your support and belief in our journey. With your help, we can continue to chase our dreams, achieve great heights, and inspire others to do the same. Thank you for being a part of our story and helping us make our mark in the world of ski jumping!
