Send a Canadian Combat Instructor to Spread Safety in the US

Donation protected
Hey there, amazing donors!

I’m Savannah, your friendly, neighborhood federal correctional officer from the great land of Canada, where we all apologize for everything and say "eh?" more than is probably healthy. Oh, and when I’m not working in the wild world of corrections or getting lost in nature, I run a side hustle teaching people how to defend themselves and providing top-notch security services. So basically, I help people stay safe from all kinds of shenanigans if I am not myself training for my own safety!

Now, here's the exciting part: In September 2025, I'm heading back to Cincinnati to join an incredible group of badass men and women at the 6th edition of our Combatives Camp! It’s going to be two days packed with high-energy training, epic skills, and a whole lot of camaraderie. (Also, definitely many inappropriate jokes and comments while teaching - You can ask Jesse about it - and probably a few questionable dance moves after training ends… don’t judge me. )

Now, I know what you're thinking: “But Savannah, how can I be a part of this epic adventure?” Well, I'm glad you asked! With this campaign, you’ll help me cover the travel costs, so I can get there without having to sell a kidney or two (or do something worst that could make me lose my job, oupsyyyy)! The participation fees for the camp are super affordable, because we want as many people as possible to benefit from this training, but the travel expenses can be a bit much.

Every donation, no matter how small, will make a HUGE difference. It’ll allow me to go share my knowledge and help more people become safer, stronger, and more confident—without the stress of worrying about flights, hotels, or that dreaded baggage fee! And hey, you’ll be part of something bigger too: you’ll be helping us increase the everyday safety of our participants, making the world a little bit less dangerous one self-defense move at a time.

So, if you can throw a few bucks my way, you’ll not only be helping me attend an awesome event but also contributing to a safer, stronger community! (Plus, I promise to share a hilarious story from the camp—I'll even make sure to include you in it, because who doesn't love a good laugh?)

Thank you so much for your support, and for being part of the reason that our community stays safe and strong. You rock!

Yours truly,
