Help Isaiah Get To Jr. Olympics

Story

Isaiah is 10 years old and this is his first year running track. He competes in the 100 meter dash, 200 meter dash and the 400 meter run. I knew he was fast, but had no idea that he would medal every week!His family, friends and coaches have been so proud of him and his steady improvement throughout the season. He's gone from a 14.01 in the 100 to a 13.5 during last week's district qualifiers. He set personal records in every event that day! At first, I was secretly hoping Isaiah wouldn't qualify for Junior Olympics because I didn't know how I (a single mom) would pay for he and I to go to Houston for a week. For a moment, I forgot where my help comes from and that HE is a provider. I never want my children to play small or not use their God-given abilities to be the very best they can be. So I'm rooting for him do well at the regional finals this weekend and qualify to compete nationally. Isaiah is putting in the work, both on the track and in school. He is an honor roll student and an awesome athlete! Please help Isaiah continue to live out his dreams by donating whatever dollar amount you can. All donations will be used for transportation from Virginia to Texas and during our stay, registration fees,  food and lodging costs for the week of the 2016 AAU Jr. Olympic Games. Thank you in advance for all the love, support and prayers for my baby boy! Erica Hayes *even if you do not have the money to contribute, please take the time to share this post*
