Help Wolfpack Journey to National Championship

Hello, we are a youth football team (13U Division), Cheer and Dance  based in Chicago, IL.  It has been a long road to the National Championship and our boys have taken the title for Midwest Regional Champs undefeated 2021. We recently were invited to the National Youth Championship in Florida, an event that is invite-only to the best teams in the nation. We are trying to raise a minimum of $30000 to pay for boarding, travel, transportation, activities, and food for our Boys and Girls. Our parents have been very supportive throughout the season with the strict demands of time, donations and events to congratulate them on all their hard work and efforts. Although it has brought an abundance of joy to the children, it has taken up a lot of our personal finances. We were informed of this invitation on November 21 2021, that our boys had qualified for the event due to their successful season. It is obviously short notice and all money is due on December 1, 2021, to ensure that travel arrangements and expenses have been accounted for. Our children are all very excited to go and deserve this chance at greatness. To play they are required to keep grades a minimum of 3.1 in which all of our children have met and exceeded. We are strong advocates of education first! They have been training months before the season, attending training camp and putting extra time at the park, and practicing 3 days a week during the season. They have created a family bond like no other and all love each other. We teach our boys the fundamentals of playing an organized sport. We correct them on how to play to ensure that they are always safe. Our football family has grown into a very supportive and loving environment despite the harsh rep that the city has been accustomed to being viewed. Our goal is to keep inner-city children on a structured, healthy and disciplined path in the attempts to guide them to a brighter future.
