Help support our students in the USA Karate Team!!
At last year’s USANKF Nationals in Lafayette, LA, 4 students from our school, Palm Beach Karate, qualified for Jr. Team USA and will be representing USA throughout the world!
-
Christopher Garrido - Gold Medal
-
Gabriela Navarrete - Gold Medal
-
Kevin Cruz - Silver Medal
-
Julio Velasquez - Silver Medal
Last year they competed at the Jr. Pan-American Championships in São Paulo, Brazil and 2 of the 4 also competed in the Jr. World Championships in Venice, Italy. The expenses for each tournament/trip were extremely high: travel, hotel, food and other expenses throughout the tournament for the students. We created this fundraiser as a way help our students with some of the costs so they can have the opportunity to accomplish their goals.
Thank you for your support and consideration.
