Written by Trey:
Kia ora! I'm Trey Church, a young basketball player from Aotearoa, and I have been selected to compete in a tournament in Las Vegas. This opportunity isn’t just about me—it’s a chance to show that a boy from New Zealand, with enough drive and natural talent, can go toe-to-toe with the best. Thanks to Hoop33 for arranging and supporting these young athletes, giving us access to this amazing opportunity. My dream is to earn a scholarship in America, reach the NBA, and inspire others back home.
I have the heart, determination, and skill to make it happen, but I can't do it alone. Please, please support—no amount is too small. If everyone I know can donate even a little, I will truly feel the love and support. Also, if you need help, are fundraising for something yourself, or have any ideas or collaborations, I’d be very interested—please reach out to me.
Any support towards travel, accommodation, and fees will bring me closer to showing what we’re capable of. Thank you for believing in me and being a part of this journey.
Ngā mihi nui,
Trey

"A Huge Thank You to My First Supporters!" 28 September 2024
Kia ora everyone,
I want to say a massive thank you to the first people who have donated to my journey. Your support is honestly amazing, and I can't tell you how much it means to me. Knowing that there are people backing me already gives me the energy to push even harder towards my dream.
We've raised $100 so far, and it's a fantastic start towards the $8,500 goal. I know it’s a big target, but every small step makes a difference, and your generosity has already made me feel like this is truly possible.
This journey isn't just about me; it’s about showing that someone from Aotearoa, with enough drive and heart, can stand on an international stage and compete. Thank you for helping me take this first step.
If you could share my page or spread the word, it would mean everything to me. Let’s show the world what we can do.
Ngā mihi nui,
Trey
