Hi, everyone! My name is Vaneza. I am trying to raise funds to go to the APA 9 ball Shootout Championship in Las Vegas. I started playing pool about a year ago as a way to combat my depression after becoming a widow almost 9 years ago, give myself a reason to get out of the house, and to increase mobility in my right arm. I have been on disability for almost 5 years and it’s difficult to come up with additional funds to cover my expenses. I’ve made it to the MVP tournament each season and won 1st place and a spot in Regionals during the summer season. This year, I made it as a finalist to the 2025 APA 9-Ball Shootout. If you could find it in your heart to help me get to Las Vegas, I would really appreciate it. Even the smallest amount will help. Thank you in advance for your support and God bless.
