Help Elek Attend the World University Games

Hello Everyone!

My name is Elek Miller, a 2023 graduate of the University of Arizona's W.A. Franke Honors College with a major in neuroscience. Throughout my years at U of A, I've competed nationally and internationally and have represented Team USA and Wildcat Archery, winning a gold in mixed team at the 2022 FISU America Games and individual gold at this year's Collegiate Western Regional championship. On graduation day, as I was walking to my ceremony, I received a thrilling email: I'd been named to Team USA to represent my contry at the the World University Games this July in Chengdu, China! This news was definitely big for me, as it's been a dream of mine to compete on the world stage ever since starting the sport of archery. While I am very excited to have this opportunity to compete in the games, it will be very difficult to afford the trip, as it is entirely self-funded. I will be working this summer to help cover part of the trip, but this is an expensive one, and I would be extremely grateful for any assistance! All donations will go toward covering registration, airfare, lodging, transportation, food, and medical insurance.

My communities in both Tucson and Las Vegas have been incredibly important to my development as a student and an archer, and I truly appreciate all of you!

Thank you so much!
