========================
We have created this fundraiser to help Yannis Charles, a dedicated wrestler who is seeking donations to help pay for his training and expenses this summer and for his upcoming wrestling season at Morgan State University.

He has been training tirelessly and is determined to achieve great success in the sport of wrestling. Due to an injury last summer, he had to take the year off and must now accelerate his training in order to get ready for the huge task in the upcoming competitions this wrestling season.

His goals include becoming one of the few South Carolinian wrestlers to win a D1 National Championship, if not the FIRST, as well as, the first wrestler to win a National Championship from a D1 Historically Black College or University (HBCU). This has never been done!

This will be a historic opportunity for Yannis. He has already made history as the first-ever SC wrestler to win a GFC National title. In order to reach these monumental goals and continue making history in the sport of wrestling, we are looking for financial support to cover international travel & training, privates with the world's best coaches, and other related expenses. Eating healthy alone is crazy expensive!

You can be a part of this journey. If you send a donation of $500 or more, we will send you a one-of-a-kind shirt with Yannis' signature that says. "I/We helped Yannis train to become a National Champ. You will also be able to see how your donations are being invested by following us on IG as we document his journey throughout this year.

Thank you for considering this historic opportunity to support a talented wrestler on behalf of Yannis and the ChasingTheCharles family.
