Hi! I am Katniss Paris, 2024 Stand Up Paddle Sprint World Champion from Ludington Michigan. And the current fastest woman in the world on SUP!

I am seeking funds and sponsorships to defend my title in the 2025 sprint world championships in Abudhabi UAE this October

Transportation of myself, lodging and my equipment transportation is extremely expensive this year due to the location of the ICF world championships. I have put in all the hard work to bring an even bigger performance to the start line this year and to bring home a gold for my country and home state again, but the finances for this event have been proving the biggest challenge.

I am extremely greatful to all who can help in any way. If you are not able to assist with donation it would still mean a lot to me if you could share my fundraiser!

Thanks!

Much love and much gratitude

~Kat

Should it happen I do not meet the goal in time, all funds will go towards the 2026 world champs in Sicily to reclaim my title.
