Help Me Get To Poland! :) :)

Donation protected
Hi! My name is Kaitlyn Gonzales. I am a 12-year-old black belt in Shotokan karate. I have trained at the Japan Karate Do Federation for almost 9 years. I recently competed in the 2014 AAU Nationals and became the 1st place National Champion in the 12yr old lightweight kumite division, and took 2nd in the 12yr old kata division. This placement earned me an invitation onto the National Karate Team, to compete at the world championships in Poland this October. The cost of the trip is about $10,000 for me to go and compete. I need some support because even though I do a lot of training to be physically ready, financially it would be hard to get the money in this short period of time. Since the National Championships I have devoted my summer towards training, and even asked my parents to cancel our vacation so I could train. Between Karate, strength and conditioning, and cardio sessions, I train close to 15-20hrs a week. It is my dream to represent my country in International competition in karate, and I would appreciate any help from friends and family to get me there.
