Hi! I’m Isabella Shenandoah-Kurtz, a student at Buffalo State, a current Buffalo Bills intern, and an aspiring leader in the sports industry. I’ve worked hard to earn my place in this field, and now I’ve been offered the opportunity of a lifetime:

To travel to San Francisco for Super Bowl Week as part of the Living Sport International Sport Business Program.

This is a career-building, behind-the-scenes business experience that places me directly inside the action at one of the biggest sporting events in the world.

And yes… I’m really hoping Josh Allen and the Bills will be playing in Super Bowl LX. ❤️

Why This Opportunity Matters

Living Sport selects emerging professionals from across the country and immerses us in real industry environments including executive workshops, networking sessions, and operational, media-driven roles throughout Super Bowl Week.

For me, this means:

• Hands-on experience working Super Bowl events

• Direct access to executives, teams, and organizations hiring rising talent

• Skills and relationships I’ll bring back to Buffalo and the sports community

Why I’m Fundraising

The $9,000 program tuition is required to secure my spot in the Living Sport program. Unfortunately, Buffalo State was unable to include this program cost in my student loan budget, which means I’m responsible for covering it independently.

I’m working, saving, and contributing as much as I can, but I need support to make this opportunity possible.

What the $9,000 Covers

This tuition includes:

• Full participation in the Living Sport International Sport Business Program

• Executive workshops and hands-on industry training

• Placement in operational and media-driven roles throughout Super Bowl Week

• Networking opportunities with professionals across the sports and entertainment industry

• Onsite coordination, logistics, and professional support

Why Your Support Truly Matters

Your support helps me:

• Take a real step toward a long-term career in the sports industry

• Experience the inner workings of the Super Bowl firsthand

• Represent Buffalo on one of the world’s biggest stages

And if the Bills punch their ticket to Super Bowl LX, your support helps ensure that someone from Buffalo is behind the scenes with them.

Thank You Truly

Whether you donate, share, or send good vibes, I’m incredibly grateful.

This experience would mean everything to me. With your help, I’ll walk into Super Bowl Week ready to work hard, learn deeply, and make Buffalo proud.

Thank you for believing in me and for investing in my dream.

Go Bills! ❤️
