Help Thewy get to Peru
Donation protected
Hi there, my name is Krysta and I've created this fundraiser to help young Gold Coast athlete, Thewbelle Philp, get to the
2024 World Athletics U20 Championships in Lima, Peru this coming August.
Only recently turning 16, Thewbelle was selected to represent Australia as part of the U20 Female 4x100m Relay team. This is an amazing achievement and another step towards her goal of representing Australia at the Olympics. Thewbelle has achieved outstanding results at a State and National level for many years now. I will highlight some of her results from 2024 so far.
Queensland State Championships:
- Double State Champion taking out both the U17 Female 100m and 200m
- Thewbelle broke the long standing 200m State Record and was very close to breaking the State 100m Record
Australian Track & Field Championships:
- National Champion taking out the U17 Female 100m.......... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9Q4PDKJLRw

- Gold as part of Team QLD in the U18 Female 4x100m......... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUBHZrVRVO8
- 5th Place, as a 16 year old, in the U20 Female 100m Final....... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0cJuFKPOJo
I met Thewbelle and her beautiful family through a Little Athletics Club that I'm involved with. Thewbelle was always a naturally good sprinter but her dedication and commitment to training, and her passion for athletics, has seen her continually improve over the years. Those of us who know Thewbelle, always knew she had a bright future in the sport but we are still always impressed at each accomplishment. Thewbelle has so much love and support behind her, not only because of her talent, but because she humble, kind and genuinely supportive of her competitors. It's those traits that fill us with so much pride and happiness to watch her succeed.
The funds will be used for........
- Return Airfares to Peru, accommodation and meals for Thewbelle (approximately $6000)
- I would love to raise enough to assist getting one or both of her parents to Peru also
I'm also putting a call out for any companies/brands interested in sponsoring Thewy to support her ongoing expenses as she travel's around Australia participating in the competition circuit. Between airfares, accommodation, meals, training fees, competition uniforms, footwear, event entry fees etc, the expenses for the next 12 months will be a minimum of $20 000. Please spread the word and reach out to myself or the Philp family if you know of any opportunities.
Thank you in advance for donating or sharing this page to help us make Thewy's dreams come true xxx
