I created this campaign because:
I have heard nothing but good things about the people and experiences at Kin Games so I could not be more excited to attend the Games at the University of British Columbia this year. I think it will be a great way to network and meet students with similar interests across Canada and find out more about what I can do with my Kinesiology degree.
- I will be competing in sitting volleyball! I was always a setter in volleyball so I am looking forward to the challenge of the adapted sport.
I will be using the funds for:
Funds that are raised will help make our trip possible by paying for travel fees and accommodations in Vancouver. To fly a team of 24 people to Vancouver from Montreal is no easy feat. This alone will need approximately $16,000 in funds. Accommodations will cost the team another $5,300. Registration for the tournament will cost $5,280. Uniforms will total $2,400 for the team. This puts our total cost at approximately $29,480.
So far, the McGill Kinesiology Games Team has raised money through various fundraisers and sponsors over the past months. We have raised $715 through 2 bake sales, $316 through a clothing order, $200 through donation based fitness classes, $340 through running event coat checks, $760 through an online auction. We have also received sponsorship from our Student Association totaling $500. Finally each team member has made a $300 deposit to the team fund so that we have money available to run other events. Combined, this puts the team fund at approximately $10,000.
Your supported means:
Your contribution to the McGill Kinesiology Games Team means that I will be able to participate in an event that will help me network with some of the best student leaders in health and fitness related fields.
