Send Our Young Jiu-Jitsu Champions to Costa Rica and Florida!

Campaign Story:

Help Our Young Athletes Compete on the International Stage!
We’re a passionate team of young jiu-jitsu athletes, ages 9 to 14, with an incredible opportunity to compete internationally in two prestigious tournaments—one in Costa Rica and one in Florida. These events are more than just competitions—they’re a chance for our athletes to grow, gain global experience, and create lifelong memories.

With your support, we can continue empowering these kids to dream bigger, train harder, and represent our community with pride on the international stage.

Who We Are

We’re not just teammates—we’re a family. Some of our athletes have been training in jiu-jitsu for 7 to 8 years, and several have already competed—and excelled—at major tournaments like Pan Kids. Over the past year, they’ve continued to dedicate countless hours on the mats, sharpening their skills and deepening their commitment. Through this journey, they’ve grown in discipline, teamwork, and resilience.
We’re also a proudly multinational team, representing the spirit of Playa Venao and Panama. With roots from around the world and hearts grounded in our local community, we’re coming together to compete internationally—and show what unity, hard work, and passion can achieve.

Why We Need Your Help
We’re working hard to raise $22,000 to help cover:
• Travel – Airfare and local transportation from Panama to and from Costa Rica and Florida
• Lodging – Safe, group accommodations for the team
• Tournament Registration – Entry fees for the competition
• Training Gear – Uniforms and equipment to ensure everyone is prepared

What Your Support Means
Your donation will help remove financial barriers so these young athletes can focus on competing, learning, and growing. Beyond the medals, they’ll gain confidence, resilience, and memories that will inspire them for years to come.

How You Can Help
• Donate – Every dollar helps us get one step closer to Costa Rica!
• Share – Spread the word on social media, with friends, or in your community.

Thank You!
From our team and their families—thank you for supporting this journey. With your help, we can turn their hard work and dreams into reality.
