Help Benn get to IFBB Bodybuilding World Championships

My name is Benn, I’m hoping to raise money to help me become the first IFBB - Elite Pro Classic Physique Bodybuilding Athlete to ever represent Australia at a ‘World Championships’ competition this October 2024.

I will be competing in two overseas shows. First competition will be ‘Mr World’ in Fujairah, UAE on the 5th October, then straight on to the ‘World Championships’ at the Arnold Classic of Europe show, held in Madrid Spain on the 12th October.

Little bit about me; I am a local boy from a tiny country town located in rural Western Australia. I've always wanted to be really good at something and felt the need to prove to myself and to the world, that it really doesn't matter where you come from, if you have the drive, determination, passion, dedication and a strong work ethic, you have the potential to make anything in life happen.

Setting up this go fund me page was a difficult decision to make, as I thought I could manage everything on my own, while I am a disciplined athlete, I am also a hardworking man, who's been doing his absolute best to balance working full time, while also training extremely hard before and after work day in, day out for the past 20 years. This dedication to training specifically to bodybuilding has allowed me to achieve the physique required to be a competitive professional athlete with the potential of winning the 2024 World Championships competition. Previously I have competed in 10 Australian state shows, in 2023 I won Mr Universe Australia - Classic Physique division, which gave me my Pro Card, this success meant I am now able to compete as an IFBB Elite professional athlete and be eligible for this unique opportunity and experience of competing against the best athletes in the world.

Unfortunately due to my work hours being cut back recently and some recent unexpected large financial costs I’ve had to endure, I have realised if I want to achieve my life long dream, I need to ask for some financial help and support from my community if I want to represent Australia and achieve my dream. I truly want to bring awareness to this sport that I love so dearly and to my community, and those who supported me proudly, I will be so grateful for any and all donation, even just a small amount of money will be appreciated as every dollar raised will help with the huge financial costs associated with what I’m trying to accomplish.

Your donation will go towards helping me cover the basic expenses of competing overseas, which including flights, transportation, travel insurance, accommodation, competition entry fees x2, food and other required competition related costs.

Thank you in advance for your contribution. You have no idea how much it means to me to have your support.
