Support Trans Athletes! Queer Tournament 4!

Support Trans and Queer Fight Sports!

Hello! We need your help!

We are a volunteer-run group that organizes martial arts classes and events for the LGBTQ community in Seattle. We are hosting our 4th semiannual Queer and Trans Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai Tournament on August 30th-Sept 1st. We are reaching out for support for our event, fighters, coaches, and coordinators.

We created this tournament to give queer and trans athletes a place to compete without prejudice. It is extremely difficult for queer and trans people to find supportive competition environments, so we have decided to make the space for ourselves!

We are asking for donations of any amount in support of our event. All donations will go to the athletes who are competing; we have created scholarships that help low-income folks pay their registration and travel costs, and the rest will go towards food and other services for competitors. The last two tournaments have had over 100 competitors from all over the world and we are expecting even more at our event this Fall!

If you can't donate, please spread the word! Thank you for your support!
