<div>Hey everyone!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Griffin, I’m 13 years old, and I have some super exciting news. I qualified for the K-8 U1100 Division of a national chess tournament called <a href="https://new.uschess.org/supernationals-viii" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">SuperNationals VIII</a> in Orlando, Florida May 9-11.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’ve been working really hard at chess. I won 8th grade for the state of Idaho both regional and state scholastics tournaments! And it’s something I truly love. I practice a ton, studying 10 hours a week on average, and I’ve won some pretty tough games. Now, I’ve got the chance to play against some of the best players in the country, and I really want to go. This would give me the chance to do something I have never done before which is compete at national level.
</div>
<div>But… Here's the tricky part: going from Idaho to Orlando is not cheap. Between the flights, hotel, food, and tournament fees, it adds up fast. That’s why I’m trying to raise $1,000 to help cover the cost and make this dream come true.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This tournament means a lot to me. It’s not just a competition, it's a huge opportunity to grow, learn, and represent where I’m from. If you’re able to donate anything, even a few dollars it would seriously mean a lot.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thanks so much for reading this, and thanks even more if you’re able to support me.
</div>
<div><br />
