Help Lee fly Panta to WEG
Donation protected
I am raising money to assist the Virgin Islands Equestrian Association with the transport costs for Panta Leone to the World Equestrian Games!
Training with Panta in England.
My dream began years ago after a debilitating riding accident ultimately led me into Para Dressage. I then challenged myself to be the first competitor for the US Virgin Islands competing at the Paralympics!
Growing up in the islands...
Amazingly the dream came true and I represented the USVI at the London 2012 Paralympics and also in Caen at the 2014 WEG my goal now is to represent the islands once more - at the 2018 World Equestrian Games being held in North Carolina USA.
Competing in London 2012 on Rhapsody
When we qualified for WEG last year it was anticipated that the USVI governement would assist with the necessary funding but after suffering two devastating category 5 hurricanes last September there is simply no question of any financial contribution being available.
My dad's house with the deck almost completely destroyed.
We now have to find a staggering £11,000 for Panta's flight alone and I am hoping to raise as much as possible so that we can once again have the USVI competing against the world!
Your contributions, however small, will help to make this dream happen!! Having the tiny islands represented at World Championships and bringing a positive story of the VI to the world means so much to me and all our supporters!
Gaining our WEG qualification with Panta after just 5 weeks together!
I would be grateful if you could please share my story. Thank you. Lee
