Support Nico's Dream to Train in Spain

Hello, we are the Motoa's, a Colombian family in Boaz AL, and we are looking for your support to make our oldest son Nicolas' dream of traveling to Spain to join the EF Huesca soccer academy come true.

Since he was little, Nico has been very talented in soccer. At Christmas of 2013, he received a Barcelona FC uniform, and soccer cleats as a gift. We can still remember him the next day showing the younger brother and sister his skill without ball. (If you scroll all the way down you can see that video).

Upon arriving in the United States and joining the high school soccer team, we already saw that this was not just a hobby for him. During his time in high school, Nico was the captain of his team, he won the All-County Offensive Player of the Year in 2022-2023, Top Scorer in 2023, an Honor for Hard Work and Dedication to the Varsity Team.

During this period, Nico and his team achieved the highest number of games won in the history of his school's soccer program and reached the first round of the playoffs. In addition to being champions of the Lakeshore Shootout, his name was also included in the All-County First Team that year. Until that moment, it seemed that Nico would graduate with a scholarship for his performance in the sport, and this was a good opportunity to continue playing soccer in college, as was his goal. But at the same time, we were waiting for his U.S. residence card, which was essential to be able to continue his dream. It's been a year and a half since he graduated and his green card just arrived a couple of months ago, he wasn't able to take any of the opportunities he had at the time, but he didn't give up on his dream, during this time he stayed in good shape training every day for when that moment comes. Nicolás is currently 19 years old and works as a waiter in a restaurant, he also got his certification as a referee, and just applied to work at Walmart at night, all that to raise funds to travel to Spain in December and join the EF Huesca soccer academy, his goal is to travel for a year to perfect his technique and get a signing that allows him to join a professional team in the U.S. when he returns home. Soccer is really everything to him, and considering that this is the opportunity of a lifetime, that time is passing quickly, and that the career of a soccer player is short, we are determined to knock on the necessary doors to make Nico's dream come true, starting by asking for the help of our friends and family, Please help me so that Nico can go to Spain and join this academy for one year as part of the process to make his dream come true.
