Help send Ashleigh to Nationals
Donation protected
Hi my name is Helen Frampton,
I'm writing this on behalf of myself and my daughter Ashleigh. Ashleigh was recently selected in the u20 Queensland Basketball team that will compete at the National Championships in February.
Coming from a small town like Bundaberg, basketball is relatively small and access to high level coaches, competitive competition and appropriate facilities is limited, so making a state team is a massive achievement for Ashleigh. I feel like this is Ashleigh's year to shine after 9 years of sheer dedication and hardwork. Ashleigh needs this opportunity to be able to showcase her talents at these Championships as her ability to perform at the tournament may help to fulfil her dreams of studying and playing basketball in America on scholarship.
Unfortunately Ashleigh and myself are in a difficult financial situation. As a single parent with no family support I'm feeling at a loss and somewhat helpless as we have exhausted all our options to be able to have made a partial payment. We have looked into all avenues of fundraising; however this is a catch 22 situation as you need the initial funds to be able to set them up so we have decided to reach out and ask for help, any contribution would be greatly appreciated.
Over the past 8 years I have been watching the early morning trainings, gym sessions 7 days a week along with night trainings. Ashleigh has travelled from Cairns to Canberra with basketball and is now doing all she can day and night to succeed in this sport that is her passion and hopefully with a little help her future.
