Help a U.S. Freediver Compete at the 2025 World Championship

Hi friends, ocean lovers, and supporters of athletic excellence —

We’re rallying behind a remarkable U.S. athlete and waterman who’s been selected to represent the United States at the 2025 CMAS Freediving World Championships — one of the most elite and demanding competitions in the world.

This athlete has spent years training in silence — diving deeper into the ocean on a single breath than most of us can imagine. He's earned the honor of competing on the world stage, and we want to make sure nothing stands in the way of this moment.

Why Support Matters:

Freediving is a self-funded sport. Unlike other Olympic-level athletes, U.S. freedivers receive no federal or corporate funding. Athletes must cover:

•⁠ ⁠International travel and baggage fees (with heavy gear)

•⁠ ⁠Safety and coaching support

•⁠ ⁠Accommodations and training costs before and during the event

•⁠ ⁠Registration and national team expenses

Despite these challenges, this athlete continues to train with quiet commitment, humility, and deep respect for the ocean. His performance uplifts not just our country, but an entire community of divers, nature lovers, and those who believe in pushing human limits with grace and integrity.

What You’re Supporting:

Your donation helps cover:

•⁠ ⁠Flights and ground transportation to the CMAS World Championships

•⁠ ⁠Competition and training fees

•⁠ ⁠Equipment maintenance and safety support

•⁠ ⁠Daily costs for 3–4 weeks of training abroad

Every dollar goes directly to supporting his ability to compete safely and confidently — representing the U.S. with pride.

Why It Matters:

In a world that often celebrates loudness, freediving reminds us that true strength lies in silence, stillness, and connection to nature.

By contributing, you’re not just funding a trip — you’re supporting:

•⁠ ⁠A local U.S. athlete with global potential

•⁠ ⁠The visibility of this unique and powerful sport

•⁠ ⁠A movement toward honoring our oceans through mindful exploration

✨ How You Can Help:

1.⁠ ⁠Donate what you can — every bit helps.

2.⁠ ⁠Share this page with your network — friends, fellow divers, ocean lovers.

3.⁠ ⁠Send words of encouragement — they go deeper than you think.

Let’s show this athlete that he’s not diving alone — that behind every deep breath is a community that believes in him.

With deep gratitude and love,

Johnny's Family & Friends
