I created this campaign because:
Last year I achieved my main goal for the season by qualifying for the World Junior Championships (WJC). Unfortunately, I was unable to attend because I could not cover the costs. I am launching this campaign with the aim of raising awareness and the hope to find enough support to enable me to compete in the WJC this season.
Furthermore, I am currently looking for significant sponsorship to help me cover the costs of my training programme. It would be fantastic if, as a result of this campaign, I find support which will help me achieve my long-term goals; such as competing on the World Cup circuit and the 2018 Olympic Games.
If you would like to find out more about me and my athletic achievements, please have a look at my Make a Champ ‘Bio&Results’ page, or explore the following links:

I will be using the funds for:
By contributing to my funding campaign for the 2015 WJC, you will help me cover the expenses of travelling to the event (flights and baggage allowance), coaching fees, travelling at the event, meals, etc. Moreover, if I reach my funding goal and go beyond it, the additional funds raised will go towards the costs of my annual training programme, which in turn helps with my overall athletic development and preparation for the WJC.
Through your help, you will give me the once-in-a-life-time opportunity to achieve my sporting ambitions. Last year, I was quite upset when I realised I would be unable to compete in the WJC, as it was one of my main goals for the 2014 season. If I raise enough funds to cover the costs of the event, I will be able to focus fully on my preparatory training and competing without having to worry about financial logistics. Going to the WJC is a significant milestone in my athletic career because it would be an invaluable experience in my journey as a world-class athlete.
Your supported means:
Support me through funding and/or sharing my campaign, you will help Make A Champ and be a part of my story. A story aimed at inspiring others to reach their full potential in all areas of life.
As an elite athlete, I have overcome many challenges, which have made me mature into a better athlete. I aspire to teach others how to overcome difficulties by sharing my experiences, such as how I managed my sporting and academic commitments during my school years: http://www.rachellerogers.co.uk/skiing-education/.
Thank you for taking the time to read my campaign and I hope you can show support by sharing and contributing! Keep smiling :)
