Pirate Schemes to Olympic Dreams: Support Maggie’s Voyage

Hello! I’m Maggie Shealy, a dedicated athlete on the U.S. Travel Team and the reigning NCAA Women's Saber Champion (2024) from Brandeis University. I’m proud to be the second woman in Division III history to win this title against tough Division I competition. My fencing journey has also earned me four All-America honors and an 8th place senior team national ranking.

What started as a dream to excel in college fencing has turned into an international adventure. Over the past season, I had the incredible opportunity to represent Team USA and Brandeis University in Algeria, France, Tunisia, and Bulgaria. These experiences have been transformative, but they also come with significant expenses.

To keep pursuing my goals, I need your support. Your contributions will help cover essential costs, including training, travel and accommodations, and coaching expenses. This will allow me to focus on training and competing at my best. As a graduate student juggling multiple part-time jobs, every dollar I earn goes toward fencing, bills, and student loans.

Please consider helping me continue this journey toward my Olympic dream. A contribution to this fundraiser, no matter how small, brings me one step closer to achieving my goals. Or, you may make a purchase at our store . Proceeds from sales support me, and 12% of all sales goes to Brandeis University.

Thank you for your generosity and encouragement.
