<div>At just 10 years old, Bristol has been selected as the youngest member of an elite 11-person team to compete internationally in Europe this March. After training 6 days a week for the last 18 months, she’s ready for the world stage—but she needs your help to get there.  It will take $6500 to get there, but we are helping her do it in incremental stages.

<div>Bristol’s love for figure skating shines through in her dedication and discipline. For the past 2.5 years, she has been "all-in" on the ice, ramping up her training to 8–11 lessons per week, plus intensive group sessions every Saturday. Her confidence and poise have grown with every challenge, and this opportunity to represent her team is a testament to her hard work. Out of her entire skating team, only 11 members were selected for this international travel team, and Bristol is the youngest skater of the group.

<div>Her parents have already covered coaching fees, competition registration, and other costs, but the funds raised will help cover travel, food, and lodging for Bristol and her support team. The competition is in March 2026, and travel funds need to be finalized within the next 45 days. Bristol is heading up this fundraiser herself—she recently received a 3D printer for Christmas and is using it to create custom skating-themed thank-you gifts. For any donation, she will personally 3D-print and mail a custom skate-silhouette keychain as a token of her appreciation. If you’d like to receive a thank-you gift, please send a private message with your mailing address after donating.

<div>Your support will not only help Bristol reach the competition, but also show her the power of community and gratitude. Thank you for believing in her journey and helping her chase her dreams!
