My son, Riku Barragan, is 7 years old and has been passionate about soccer since he started playing at age 5. In addition to soccer, Riku is also dedicated to martial arts, which has helped him develop discipline and confidence. Recently, he worked incredibly hard and was selected to join the travel soccer team for the Fun Experience Prospects. This is a huge accomplishment for him, and I am so proud of his dedication and passion for both sports. As a parent, I do everything I can to support his dreams, but the costs associated with this opportunity are more than I can manage on my own.

The funds raised will go directly toward covering his registration fees, travel expenses, and equipment, allowing him to participate fully with his team. Being part of this program will give him the chance to learn new techniques, continue doing what he loves, and prepare for the possibility of playing throughout his life—maybe even in college one day if he wants to. Most importantly, it will help boost his confidence and provide a healthy distraction as he navigates some mental health challenges. Staying active and engaged with his team is so important for his well-being.

I am reaching out to friends, family, and anyone who believes in supporting young athletes. Your generosity will make a real difference in my son's life and help him take advantage of this amazing opportunity. Thank you so much for considering a donation and for being part of his journey.
