My name is Virginia Prado & a dream opportunity has opened up for our family, and we’re asking for help to make it possible.

Noah Bennett, my 17-year-old center, has been invited to play in the Hawaii Tiki Bowl, a prestigious football event taking place December 17–22, 2026. This invitation represents years of hard work, sacrifice, and determination—early mornings, long practices, and a young athlete who never stopped believing in himself.

The Hawaii Tiki Bowl brings together top student-athletes from across the country, and being selected is a true honor. As a center, Noah plays one of the most demanding and leadership-driven positions on the field. His strength, discipline, and commitment to the game are what earned him this incredible opportunity to compete on a national stage.

While this is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, the costs associated with attending are significant. We are raising funds to help cover travel, lodging, registration fees, meals, and other required expenses needed for Noah to participate.

Any donation—no matter the amount—will help turn this dream into reality. If you’re unable to give, sharing this fundraiser is just as meaningful and appreciated.

Please consider being part of Noah’s journey. Your support isn’t just helping him attend a football game—you’re helping a young athlete see that hard work truly pays off.
