<div>My name is Heather “The Heat” Hardy, and I gave everything I had to boxing. A Brooklyn fighter, single mother, WBC International champion, and former WBO Featherweight World Champion, I built my career the hard way—round by round, fight by fight, often while working and raising my daughter. I fought in an era when women had to force doors open, and I always tried to give fans championship moments they’d never forget.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now I’m facing the hardest fight of my life outside the ring. After years of taking punches for the sport I loved, I suffered a traumatic brain injury. The damage has affected my health, my vision, and my ability to work consistently enough to cover basic living expenses and necessities.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If my fights ever inspired you, if you cheered for my championships, or if you've ever given everything to a job only to have it take your health and leave you without help, please consider donating and sharing this fundraiser.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every contribution helps me to meet my immediate living needs while I focus on my health, stability, and the next chapter of my life after boxing. To everyone who has ever cheered for me, stood by me, or shares this today, your support means the world to me, and I’m grateful beyond words. Thank you.
