Help Jo reach the Games in MN

Hi, My name is Johelmy (Jo) Figueroa and I'm attending the 2025 National Veterans Wheelchair Games in Minneapolis, Minnesota from July 16-23. I'm a part of the NM Rollin' Chili Peppers Team and will be traveling with the team.

The National Veterans Wheelchair Games is premier adaptive sports competition open to Veterans with qualifying injuries. Veterans have the opportunity to compete for medals in air rifles, air pistols, archery, adaptive fitness, wheelchair basketball, bass fishing, boccia, bowling, cornhole, cycling, disc golf, field events, motor rally, power soccer, wheelchair rugby, wheelchair slalom, wheelchair softball, table tennis, pickle ball, 9-ball, powerlifting, and swimming. I'll be competing in air rifles, wheelchair softbal, table tennis, 9-ball, pickleball, shot put, discus and javeline. I've been training year round in order to participate in these competitions. Much more, I'm able to meet others with similar disabilities, create connections, and allow me to learn about different ways I can create and maintain an active lifestyle. There are also coaches from various Paralympic sports at the event scouting for potential athletes to train and develop for Paralympic teams.

As a veteran attending this event I am responsible for all of the cost of traveling to and from the event and hotel costs. I may also be resposible for transporting my own adaptive equipment to the event such as air rifles, achery bows, or sports wheelchairs. Everything donated will soley for items mentioned above.

Anything helps even a share. Thank you and God Bless.
