Local Canterbury 16 year old selected to represent New Zealand in Athletics

Hi!! I'm Jonah, I'm 16 and i have been doing race walking since i was 10 years old and i have recently been selected to compete for New Zealand in the Oceania athletics championship in early June 2022, over the years i've had a lot of support from family and friends to achieve what I have so far, with lots of effort particularly from my parents to fund my participation in athletics events nationally over the years.

My place in the NZ Athletics team is an exciting honour, however, due to lack of funding to cover all costs for athletes attending this overseas event, I need to raise a large portion of the funds myself to pay my way. I am hoping there are some great people out there who are willing to help me pay my way to the Oceania Competition.
