Josh's Fight 4 The Cause
Donation protected
Everyday people are put into situations that require them to fight: either poverty, illness or just the right to fufill a dream. Everyone has their own struggles, and it's up to all of us to help each other out in anyway we can.
In light of this, I have decided to compete in Fight 4 the Cause which is a charity boxing match held this November (here's a video from last year's event). This event supports many chairities including the Brazilian Cultural Foundation, the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, the Victoria Fire Fighters Charitable Foundation, the Mustard Seed, Free the Children, Power to Be, Help Fill a Dream Foundation and Tanelle's Journey.
I'm a pretty mild mannered person and not a fighter, but what I am is a person who enjoys a challenge and pushes himself to give everything he can. I've been training for a few months now (and have had two black eyes to prove it!), but in order to participate in the official training camp, I need to come up with $1500 by the end of September. This will be used to pay for training, gym time and equipment, so this is where I'm turning to my friends and family for help!
Any donation would be greatly appreciated, but if you can't, it would be great to see you at the event (or you can do both)! (click here for ticket information and the website, click here for their Facebook page).
This is my first time trying out a Go Fund Me page, so if there's anything I can do, such as post updates or pictures, let me know! A friend of mine started a funny fan page on Facebook, so check it out! I'll try to post updates there as well!
Thanks for all the support!
