Lappage Family Road To Rio
Donation protected
Help Olds, Alberta small town girl, Danielle Lappage, accomplish her dream of winning gold at the Rio Summer Olympics.
Danielle Lappage is a Canadian freestyle wrestler. She has achieved many successes in her athletic career, the most significant being her qualification to represent Canada in the 63kg weight class at the Rio 2016 Olympic Summer Games. She has overcome many obstacles to get where she is today, including reconstructive ACL knee surgery in November of 2014. After recovering from surgery, Danielle focused all of her energy on training for her Olympic trials and came back stronger than ever both mentally and physically. She has recently been to Rio for an Olympic test game and took the GOLD medal against China, showing her potential to bring some serious hardware back home to Canada in August.
Danielle grew up in small town, Olds, Alberta, and this is where her passion for wrestling began. Olds has such an amazing sense of community spirit, and Danielle carries that same spirit with her in her Olympic dream. The community, her friends, and her family have all been such a large support system that she has used to fuel her desire to succeed. We want to provide an opportunity for her support system to watch Danielle compete live with her own personal cheering section!
She is faced with great financial stress for the upcoming year. All of her focus and energy will be geared towards training, leaving her ability to gain employment to finance her athletic pursuits and living costs to a minimum. Danielle is looking for donors and sponsors to fuel her athletic endeavors to best allow her to achieve her Olympic goals and dream. The sport of wrestling is experiencing a downfall in funding and her limited personal resources will not make up for the shortcomings that she is faced with. We are asking for your support with her financial needs, as well as to cheer her on all the way to Rio!
With your financial support, Danielle will keep you informed of her training and competition plans, along with progress reports containing her stats including rankings and athletic pursuits.
We want to see Danielle follow through with her Olympic dream, and for her parents to be in the stands to support her. The road to Rio has already begun for Danielle, and the goal of having her family by her side for the entire journey! Please donate today to help our hometown girl go for gold!
GO DANIELLE GO!!
