Hello, my name is Aria. I am a 16-year-old competitive archer, swimmer, and A+ high school student, hoping to achieve the status of academic All-American and LA 2028 Olympian representing the United States. I recently earned the privilege of training with some of the Coaches who train United States Archery Team members!!!

I am trying to raise money for a strenuous, 10-month, weekly, academic program, designed to create tomorrow's leaders. It gives you mentorship opportunities with people from hundreds of Americas leading companies and chances to problem solve and work in teams, in collaboration with top students from around the world.

I have been trying to get into this program for 2 years and finally got accepted! Over 30,000 students globally apply every year and they accept only about 1,200 of them, so I feel very honored.

The program will help me get internships at top companies like Google, Apple, and Microsoft, and is designed to build skills for success. Students who finish this program get into top universities around the world. This is a great opportunity for me but the cost is out of my budget. The program is $6,000 and as of the time of making this GoFundMe Me, I have about $3,000. They have extended the enrollment deadline for me until July 10th so that I can attempt to raise the remaining funds to participate. I am very grateful for any help that you can give.

If we somehow surpass the fundraising goal for this program, I will apply what is left, to training, practice, and tournaments, to allow me to qualify for the U.S. World Archery Team, and hopefully, the LA2028 Olympic Archery team.

*********UPDATE***********

Thanks to all of you, I reached my academic goal of attending this amazing program!!! I am SO grateful!!!

Any additional donations will be used to help me get closer and closer to covering the very costly training & competition requirements of qualifying for the U.S. World Archery Team, and the LA2028 U.S. Olympic Archery Team!!! If you are willing, please share my message♡.

If you'd like to see me in action, here is a link to a couple of videos of my shooting!
