Can Zach's golfing dream become a reality with your kind help?

My name is Zachariah (Zach) Norton, I am 20 years old and from a very small town in North Canterbury. And I am a golfer and have wished to be a professional my entire life.

I have recently been fortunate enough to be selected by a scouting company to be sent to over to the USA in order to play golf for a college/university on a golf scholarship while studying, beginning in 2016.

For myself to be able take this is amazing opportunity towards my ultimate dream. Assistance in any way is hugely appreciated as the scholarship only partially covers the studying costs and doesn't help with all the additional costs such as travel to get there, accommodation, and other associated costs over there causing a lot of financial strain on my family and self.

I am extremely focused and shows through my school results, being awarded the Dux of the school for overall academic achievement and the sportsman of the year award 2011, 2012. While studying at school was important, I have also worked towards graduating with a Bachelor's degree from Lincoln University before I depart on my American sporting adventure.

I have worked and trained my entire life for this opportunity to take the next step to reach my sporting dream but am unable to do it alone. This is just the next step in life, and hopefully help me reach my potential of being a professional golfer.

Any assistance would undoubtably help me continue to grow as a person/athlete and achieve my dream.

Thank you so much for your time and kind support!
