Support the US Men's Bobsled Team's Olympic Dream

Donation protected
The United States Olympic Team does not receive government funding. Athletes rely heavily on sponsorships, federations, and secondhand jobs to fund their Olympic journey. The US Men's Bobsled team is currently lacking funding to send the full World Cup team on tour this season. This lack of funding severely jeopardizes our ability to qualify a full Men's Team at the Milan/Cortina Olympics. The Men's Team now has to self-fund $120k in order to bring their 3rd men's team and compete on the World Cup. Our team is more than capable of qualifying a 3 mens sleds and medaling at the Olympics this winter. We need your financial support to achieve our goals for USA.

Bobsled expenses accumulate quickly. Shipping sleds to Europe for the season and the Olympics. Runners can cost up to $15k a set; drivers procure these with their own funds and require multiple sets based on ice conditions. Then there's housing, transportation, and nutrition costs that quickly add up.

The estimated total cost for a men's bobsled team to compete on the World Cup is $120k (1 driver and 4 push athletes). This includes shipping our sleds to Europe where the entire Olympic season will be taking place.

Any and all donations will go towards hotels, Airbnbs, sled shipping and transportation, food, race entry fees, and training costs while we try and qualify for the Olympics.
