As some of you may know I am a PowerChair Football athlete. I am seeking support so I can go to Brazil for a PowerChair Football tournament. This competition is very important because it is a qualifier for the 2015 World Cup. The Canadian team is very short on athletes due to the time and financial commitments involved in playing the sport. The cost of going to the tournament is $5,000 per athlete; this includes flights, accommodation, meals, and transport for both athlete and attendant. If I am not able to come up with the coin it may result in the entire team having to pull out. Unfortunately our sport receives no provincial or federal funding. The athletes must come up with the funds on their own through family support, fundraising and donations. I've been able to save some of my own money and my family has pitched in what they can but I'm still short almost $3500. Any donation, big or small, would be greatly appreciated.
