Fund Max's Dream to Dive on the World Stage

To see videos of Max visit this FB page (QR code coming) https://www.facebook.com/share/1EwgwSFGar/

Max is a 10-year-old, nationally ranked diver. Max trains about 15 hours a week in College Station at Team Texas Diving located at Texas A&M. He really puts his full effort into diving and has continued to thrive in this exciting sport since he was only six years old. Over the past three years, Max has placed in finals at AAU Nationals and USA Diving Nationals. He typically travels out of state two times a year for USA Diving Zones and USA Diving Nationals.

***This year is a particularly exciting year because he has been invited to join the National Team to represent the United States at The Rijeka Open in Croatia! What a huge opportunity to dive with the best of the best in Europe!***

He will compete in all three events and possibly synchro if we can find him a partner.

We will need to raise enough money to help pay for his travels to Croatia, Alabama, and California, which will be over $11,000.

Anything helps; anytime you share this, it helps. I will soon be attaching videos and a way for everyone to see the updates while Max is on this amazing diving journey.

UPDATE: We have raised over $1300.00 on GoFundMe and $400 on Venmo! KEEP sharing!! We only need a few hundred more to cover plane tickets to Croatia. We are making Passport appointments for next week.

Here is a rough breakdown of the costs for these competitions. This doesn't include food, passports, a possible visa to enter London (unless we can find another way, but then tickets go up), and also does not include his monthly tuition of $580 a month or his other meets we travel to within the state of Texas.

Croatia:

$2600 plane tickets

$1200 cheap hotel

$750+++ coaches' fees (this will likely be more)

$500 meet entry fee

$200 taxi fees (I'm not attempting to drive in Croatia)

$5,250 ballpark total for Croatia

Zones in Alabama:

$700 plane tickets

$700 cheap hotel

$400 rental car (a must-have; it's a few hours' drive from the airport)

$300-$400 coaches' fees

$255 meet entry fees

$2,500 ballpark total for Alabama

Nationals in Mission Viejo, California:

$1000 plane tickets (hoping it's not more)

$400 rental car (it'll be more than this, I think)

$1000 coaches' fees

$255 meet entry fees

$3,500 ballpark total for Nationals in California
