Help me cover the 2019 Pacific Games in Samoa

Donation protected
I am an amateur sports reporter and commentator who specializes in national team football on lower levels.

I have always wanted to go to Polynesia and it is my dream to be able to go there and watch the Pacific Games and experience the Pacific culture. The Pacific Games is in July from the 7th to the 20th so there are roughly 3 months to raise the money but I need to pay for plane tickets and room rental before then.
Though it is almost impossible for me to raise the money myself ...

I am diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder and am unable to work a full-time job. My money are scarce and I am prioritizing buying groceries and paying bills instead of saving money because the amount I get from the state barely covers the costs.
The government has limited the  amount of transfer payments given to a citizen because they think it will make more people go to work. Their reasoning is that it is "too easy" being on transfer payments today compared to normal work. But believe me when I say I have tried. I battled through 1 year of high school and the teachers were very understanding and let me pass with 40% absence. I needed to stop after the 1 year because of my health.

I find motivation and energy in national team football and the Pacific region of Oceania.
I am working 8 hours a week in a local gardener job meant for people like me with low working ability and also different people with different deficits.
Since the time zone in Denmark is very different from Oceania if I know there will be a morning game it can get me up in the morning so I can get to work even when I feel depressed

I am an editor of https://www.facebook.com/OceaniaFootballCenter/

The site specializes in all things football in the Pacific region and has over 3000 followers.

I am also an administrator of https://www.facebook.com/groups/272438053489010/

The group specializes in football in Europe, specifically the UEFA Nations League and I am the minnow/lower-ranked national team expert.

My plans for the Pacific Games are to interview different athletes and coaches from different island nations and also commentate on the football games.

The money will go exclusively to flight tickets and room rental for a period of about 14 days.

It would mean the world to me to be able to share my passion for the game with like-minded individuals and finally go on vacation again.

If I don't raise all the money needed I will let you know and put them aside for next year when the OFC Nations Cup comes around
