Jude has earned the honor of representing the USA in Kumite at the Jr. Pan American Championships in Paraguay this August. After a year of hard work and dedication, Jude qualified for the team through the USA Karate Jr Team Trials and National Championships. This will be Jude’s first time competing internationally, and it’s a dream come true to wear the USA colors on such a big stage. Jude is excited and proud to have this chance to represent our country and show what’s possible through commitment and perseverance.

Preparing for an international competition comes with many expenses. We’re raising funds to help cover travel to Paraguay, lodging, equipment, and the specialized training Jude needs to be at their best. Every donation will help ease the financial burden and allow Jude to focus on training and competing at the highest level. Your support will not only help Jude reach Paraguay, but also inspire a young athlete to keep striving for excellence.

Thank you for considering a donation or sharing this fundraiser. Your encouragement and generosity will make a real difference for Jude as they take this important step in their karate journey.
