The Challenge: A Self-Funded Journey (“Every rand gets them there”) – no government support
Competing against the best from over 60 nations is a prestigious honour, but it is also a self-funded one. To ensure both brothers can represent the Green and Gold on the world stage, we are raising R 87 500 per athlete (R 175 000 total). This will go towards flights, visas, transfers, accommodation, official SA kit,competition gear and entry fees. First deposits to SAKA (SA Kickboxing Association) are due in June and July.
Please consider being part of their journey with any sponsorship or assistance.
Two ways to support (“no donation too small”):
