Help Colin Compete at the 2025 North American Powerlifting World Championship!

Hi, my name is Patty Fairley, and I’m the proud parent of Colin Fairley — a remarkable young man with autism who has found his passion and strength in the world of powerlifting. Today, I’m asking for your help to make Colin’s dream come true.

Colin has been officially invited to represent the United States at the 2025 North American Powerlifting Federation Championship, a huge honor and a major milestone in his athletic journey. This incredible opportunity will allow him to compete at the international level and show the world the strength, discipline, and determination he brings to everything he does.

Colin’s love for powerlifting has been more than just a sport — it’s been life-changing. Training has given him confidence, purpose, and a supportive community that sees him for his abilities rather than his challenges. His focus, work ethic, and resilience have inspired everyone who knows him.

We’re asking for your support to help cover the costs associated with this once-in-a-lifetime event, including:

Travel and lodging

Coaching and training expenses

Team USA uniform and gear

Meals and other trip essentials

Every donation, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to getting Colin to the championship stage he’s worked so hard to reach. If you're unable to give, simply sharing this fundraiser with your friends and family would mean the world to us.

Thank you for believing in Colin and supporting his journey. Let’s show the world what strength, passion, and perseverance truly look like!

With gratitude,

Patty Fairley

(Colin’s Proud Parent)
