HELP ME RACE in Glasgow Scotland FOR TEAM USA

Donation protected
Hi, My name is Jamie Harwick and I race BMX. I'm a 43 year old mom of 3 boys, two of which race BMX. I've done a lot of fundraising over my years of being a sports mom but have never raised money for my own Sports Adventures. This being my first.
My family started racing BMX in the spring of 2020 when all other sports were closing, the BMX track in Yukon Oklahoma opened. I will never forget the first time the boys asked me if I wanted to go and I said and I quote, "I don't do BMX." It wasn't shortly after that I was spending almost 3-4 days a week at the track because there was nothing else to do. It wasn't long before my sons convinced me to jump on a bike and start riding with them daily out at our house. In January of 2021 I raced my first race at a National and I was hooked. I've had some mishaps along the way, some serious some not so serious. Last year I had two major injuries. My first being a dislocated hip and my second a crushed shoulder. In March of 2022 I raced my first race back in 6 weeks. I made an error that cost me 9 months off the Track.
I decided to race The Grands even though I knew I was out of shape and had no chance at making my Mains.. I raced because I wanted to gage my competition for 2023 and know what kind of work I needed to put in. Needless to say I got blown out of the water.
Earlier that year I vowed to myself that one day I would race Worlds. Who would have thought it would be this year. In the last few weeks I have been from Coast to Coast literally chasing my dream. I went to Florida and I was 1 rider out from qualifying on my Cruiser so two weeks later and lots of hard work and being coached in the pouring rain on March 10 in Bakersfield CA. I achieved my first step in racing at Worlds, I qualified.
Just one month Before I lost my mom suddenly and I know she was with me the whole way. The entire trip and everything that happend was an experience within itself.
So now I'm preparing to take a trip to Scotland In Aug to race both my bikes for TEAM USA. My expenses included airfare, passport, race fees, UCI memberships fees, fees to transports my bikes, such as bike bags and the cost to get them there, food, lodging and transportation while I'm there all of this is not paid for in anyway to be on the Team.
So I'm asking all my friends and Family, anyone who's kids I ever did fundraisers for, if I cheered at a game for your kid, or race, If I've been thrown out of a game defending your kids lol I'm asking for your Help in me chasing my dreams at 43. Even if you only have a dollar to give I thank you, you know my motto "EVERY DOLLAR COUNTS"
If your interested in sponsoring me with a large donation and would like having your logo on my TEAM USA jersey please contact me directly
Thank you everyone for your support in making my dream come true.
