Help Max Compete in the JKS Karate World Champs in Brazil 2026!

I've set up this page on behalf of Max, as part of the JKS Northshore Karate Team. It's so exciting that Max has been selected to compete at the JKS World Championships in Brazil in 2026!

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Max to represent his dojo and community on an international stage. As most of you know, Max's journey is particularly inspiring, and he has shown incredible determination and resilience. Diagnosed with heart condition, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy at the age of 3, Max has faced numerous challenges. Yet, his passion for karate and his drive have helped him to excel and reach this milestone.

Attending this event comes with significant costs, including travel, accommodation, competition fees, and training expenses. That’s why we’re reaching out to our friends, family, and community for support.

How You Can Help:

Donate: Any contribution, big or small, will make a huge impact and will go directly toward supporting Max. Every dollar counts!

Max's story is a testament to the resilience and determination of young athletes everywhere, particularly young heart kids. We would be so grateful to have your support in helping Max, and his club achieve this.

Thank you —we appreciate your support!
