Zain's Costs to Participate: USA Deaf Volleyball

Zain feel in love with volleyball late compared to most athletes but due to his dedication and hard work we are proud to announce that he was recently invited to join the USA National Men's Deaf Volleyball team. Zain will play/practice with his team a total of 7x in 2024 and 2025 in Washington DC, Columbus, Los Angeles, Denver and TWICE in Japan!

You might be asking what is happening in Japan??

*5th World Deaf Volleyball Championships - Okinawa, Japan (2024)

*25th Summer Deaflympics Tokyo, Japan (2025)

We will be sure to keep our friends and family in the loop of this amazing adventure!

Unlike the hearing Olympics, the Deaf Teams have to fundraise or cover the costs of their own travel, hotel, meals etc. We estimate it will cost $12,500+ to participate in this once in a lifetime opportunity over the 2024-2025 seasons.

If you are so inclined to skip your favorite coffee and make a donation to help cover some the cost of Zain's out of pocket costs we would be so very grateful! Truly, no donation is too small, we appreciate your support. For now, we set the goal for fundraising for the first year and we will go from there. All money collected will be used for Zain's out of pocket costs and if by any chance he receives more than he personally needs, the balance will be used to cover the cost of our family to attend.

Regardless if you have the capacity to financially support his dreams, thank you for your continued support and well wishes!
