Help me get to Russia for hockey
Donation protected
Friends and Family,
I need your help to make my dreams come true! I have been invited to travel to Moscow, Russia for a professional Hockey camp. It is an amazing opportunity to pursue my hockey dreams after years of giving up my passions to serve my Country.
When I made the decision to join the US Armed forces I had to walk away from the game that I loved and knew my entire life would change. I made this choice because I wanted to push myself in some of the most unfathomable conditions and training, to achieve what many had said to be impossible. Even with the crowds of doubters I achieved what few can achieve while serving their country. Unfortunately, my service ended (due to suffering multiple severe injuries) resulting in multiple surgeries, casts, wheelchairs and ultimately having to learn how to walk again. Multiple doctors told me that I would never be able to play the game of hockey again.
I didn’t give up and accomplished what many told me I would never be able to do: playing the game that I love. I am now back and working harder than ever in order to continue pursuing my dreams but to also see my life story as an opportunity to inspire others.
Given this platform I not only want to push myself to the fullest but also be the first to pave the way and knock down doors for others like me. I truly believe that if I can do it, anyone can. All it takes is for someone to believe in them. I want to be that belief and support system for others by sharing my story and impacting as many lives as I possibly can.
I owe it to the game that has gotten me through so much, always remaining a constant through all of life’s ups and downs. In a way, it has saved my Life.
This invitation is a huge honor both for me as an individual and for me to continue to inspire others through my story. Unfortunately, I do not have the funds to see this once in a life time opportunity into fruition. I am reaching out to see if anyone is able to donate to make this dream trip come true for me, to prove to myself and others, that there is always a way out of any situation.
I appreciate your help, support and belief in advance.
Yours,
Lawrence
