Help Kristi Fulfil Her Dream to Watch Emma in Paris

Dearest friends (and our friends' friends),

If you are reading this it is because we believe you are the ones that can help us get our friend to Paris to watch her daughter Emma (Olympic Silver Medalist) once again compete for Gold in the women's 400 IM.

Jen met Kristi in the late 90's while they were both working at Berkeley.

Shelby was a student then, and was already babysitting for Jen's little girl Ryan.

After her sophomore year of college, Shelby had the opportunity to babysit little Emma, and she can attest to the fact that even then Emma had the lung capacity to win a Gold medal in swimming!

Jen and Kristi have remained the closest of friends through all life's ups and downs and now we have the chance to do something for one of the most selfless and amazing women we know!!!

Due to covid Kristi was unable to travel to Tokyo to watch Emma's Olympic debut live. So she and her tribe gathered together in Sarasota to watch Emma bring home the Silver, not knowing if she would get the chance to see Emma get back to the Olympics (of course she always believed she would).

So here is where YOU come in. Help this mama watch her girl go for the Gold, live, in Paris. If we can cover hotel, meals, and some tickets to events (athletes only get a couple to give to family), all 3 of her other girls will get to go watch their sister as well!

But, we have to act fast! Opening ceremonies are July 26th!!!!

We appreciate anything you can give to help our friend that we have been lucky enough to have a front row seat as she has raised 4 AMAZING daughters, Emma, Ava- an unbelievably talented ballerina, Gracie- who will swim for the Gators next year, and Harper who we will all be listening to sing and play her guitar on the radio one day.

Please feel free to pass this along to anyone you know that would love to be a part of this families story!

Love,

Jen (McNulty) and Shelby (Gregory Barrs)
