Send Lily to Champs in Nebraska!

Donation protected
I am such a proud mom.

My 16 year old daughter Lily "Kim Karcrashian" and her junior roller derby team, Gotham Girls Junior Derby (GGJD for short) are going to the junior roller derby championships in Nebraska. They worked hard, smart and together and they qualified.

It's a very exciting event where the GGJD get to bout teams from all over the country. Following Champs is the very first Roller Derby Junior Olympics. Lily worked hard and now she is on this team as well. The two events equal to just about a week.

These are great times for Lily and it's amazing to see her skate, gain confidence and meet other committed young people such as herself and rise as a young person should.

GGJD has been to Florida, Nashville, Alabama, South Carolina and Buffalo. Lily even went to the Derby World Cup in Dallas to be on a junior mash up team for an exposition bout.

These are such incredible experiences for a girl, to grow up and come of age with a group of strong independent women who rule the track so she may become strong and independent in her own life.

If you don't know me, I just graduated University which is great, but a lot of sacrifice went into earning my degree and there has never been a lot of surplus cash in our family. Living like this presents creative challenges that ultimately make us more resourceful and hardworking but unfortunately travel is not something we can do easily. In the past to fund these trips it took some juggling, some loans and some gifts but we always came up with money. I don't ever want Lily to miss an opportunity because of cash flow, because I couldn't fund her, but sometimes it happens.

While I feel humbled by crowd sourcing and would rather not have to make this post, this is a big trip and the numbers are clear and this time I need help. Rather then lean on a few close people, maybe if a lot of people pitched in a little bit we can all share the joy a little easier. What ever you can donate would be so appreciated.

Thank you!
