Hello and thank you for taking the time to read this. I'm helping raise funds to rebuild a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gym that our kids attend.

Kairos Jiu Jitsu in Higganum, CT had the entire training area damaged this past weekend when a neighboring unit had a hot water heater let go. All of the mats need to be replaced which comes at a substantial cost. I'm starting this in an effort to help out the young gym owner, Christos Ellinas.

Christos is just 26 years old. He is absolutely amazing with the kids he trains. What he teaches them goes far beyond Jiu Jitsu techniques. He teaches them discipline, confidence, self-defense, and physical fitness. He is someone the kids look up to and he truly cares about the children.

I'd hate to see the gym closed for an extended period of time for the sake of the kids as well as Christos and his business which is still in its early stages.
