Help Annabelle get to Italy to represent New Zealand in the Rowing World Championships

After 5 years of early morning training sessions and 3 unbeaten seasons competing for Takapuna Grammar School Rowing Club Annabelle Knowles has recently been selected to represent New Zealand in the upcoming Rowing World Championships in Italy.

This is a fantastic achievement, Annabelle is only 17 and has earned first Silver Fern whilst still a student at Takapuna Grammar School.

Unfortunately, for Annabelle to attend and compete at this prestigious event she needs to raise around $8000.

Annabelle has a busy life. As well as studying in her final year at Takapuna Grammar School and maintaining excellent grades Annabelle also trains at least 9 times a week and also holds down a part time job at a local restaurant to contribute to her training and regatta costs.

$8,000 is a significant sum of money and she is asking you to support her dream of representing New Zealand on the world stage in this prestigious rowing event.

All funds raised will go towards the cost of Annabelle's training and to fund her travel and accommodation in Italy.
