Join Liam's Quest to Compete in China

Donation protected
Help Liam get to the Shaolin Temple in China!

If you know Liam you know he has been passionate about martial arts his whole life. He started training Taekwondo (Kukkiwon) at age 6, now holding a 3rd degree black belt.

In 2023, after his beloved Taekwondo masters retired, Liam began training Shaolin Wing Chun, a style of Kung Fu originating in China.

Currently in his second year of training, he attends classes at SVT Martial Arts Academy in Savannah, GA. He attends class 5 days per week, with 2-3 days per week competition training, and 3 days per week teaching in the kids' classes at the school.

If you know Liam, you know how absolutely devoted he is to walking the path of the martial artist, including the study of the concepts and the history of them.

NOW HE HAS BEEN INVITED TO COMPETE IN THE SHAOLIN TEMPLE IN CHINA Y'ALL THIS IS NOT A DRILL

I am so excited for us to go, and the GOOD NEWS is that our food and accommodations are paid for.

The BAD NEWS is that we have to pay airfare and travel expenses, which total (for us) about $4000.

Fortunately we have been able to come up with quite a bit of it ourselves (thanks to Liam's job at Vincenzo's Pizza -- shout out) but we are still far short of our goal and we need it SOON

Have you followed Liam's journey over the years?

Are you an old friend who wants to contribute?

Are you an old training partner who is excited for him to take this journey?

Are you a current loved one who wants to help?

Whatever you can contribute goes directly to our flights to China and the trains we'll be taking to the Shaolin Temple.

Thank you for being here. Thank you for your love and support.
