Help us get to the championships!

My name is Jacob Drori and I'm an archery coach and science teacher at a middle school in Pacoima. We had a nationally competative archery program run through Easton's Olympic Archery in Schools organization.
I've worked very hard to help get archery into this school, which is located less than 3 blocks away from the projects.
I started using GoFundMe to raise money because our school was broken into and all 13 of our olympic recurve bows were stolen. This was about $2000 worth of equipment. I wanted to raise money so that we could afford to replace all the stolen equipment and compete this spring in our 2nd archery season.
I was successful! We're doing great in our season so far and are now trying to pay to go to all these championships we're invited to!
Championships often cost $25 per kid plus transportation per contest, and we have quite a few amazing kids this year! Some of them are almost better than their coach!
This means a lot to me because I love archery, and so do these kids. We've gone to San Diego on long road trips to compete against other schools across the country. This is a rare thing for kids from this neighborhood to be able to do. I was heartbroken when I saw all our equipment was stolen, we have some seriously dedicated archers and they were absolutely crushed.
My school and I would be eternally grateful for any help we could get in this matter. It would brighten up our budding young archers day.
