Help Me Rebuild After My Car Was Broken Into and My MMA Gear

Hi everyone, my name is Alÿcia, and I’m reaching out for help after a frustrating setback. Recently, my car was broken into, and all my mixed martial arts (MMA) equipment was stolen. This is the third time in three years that my car has been vandalized here in Albany, and while I’ve tried to stay positive through each incident, losing all of my training gear is a huge blow.

MMA has been a huge part of my life for the past decade. I started training following the death of my grandfather, who raised me, and it became a lifeline that held me together during my mom’s passing. It’s more than just a sport to me—it’s been my way of healing, staying grounded, and moving forward.

Unfortunately, the cost to replace my stolen equipment is significant, and I need your help to get back on my feet and back to the gym. Any support you can offer, whether through a donation or sharing this fundraiser, would mean the world to me. Thank you for helping me continue doing what I love and for standing with me through this challenging time.
