Paralympian Mentoring Program
Donation protected
Back-to-back gold medallist and 7X Paralympian Liesl Tesch needs your help to set up a Paralympic Mentoring Program across Australia. Starting in regional NSW, the program will support future para athletes, young people with disabilities and disadvantaged youth across Australia.
Potential para athletes will connect with experienced Aussie Paralympians during a period of three months. Champion Paralympians will share their tips on how to be a successful athlete, setting goals and coordinating resources, social media & media-savvy tips, negotiating sponsorship deals, overcoming challenges and more.
Mentors will be goal-oriented, regionally based, and allow future champions to work with their Paralympic heroes, (often with similar disabilities) to assist in positively breaking down barriers to success.
Your support will help us run a super-successful pilot program, train mentors, set up our website, and work to build relationships with agencies that will connect Paralympians with young people in our communities across Australia who would benefit from their support.
The Australian Paralympic Mentoring Program will be a catalyst for the continued growth of a positive image around disability in our country, and will grow into a great resource for people with and without disabilities across Australia.
Please consider making a donation to help establish this Paralympic Mentoring Program and support the future of Paralympians in Australia.
