ODC Barbell Needs Your Support!
Dear Community,
ODC Barbell is a dedicated 501 C3 nonprofit organization committed to nurturing the passion and potential of youth athletes in the realm of Olympic weightlifting. As we gear up for an action-packed year filled with prestigious competitions, we are reaching out to our community for your generous support.
Our schedule is brimming with exciting events, each presenting our athletes with invaluable opportunities to showcase their talent and represent not only ODC Barbell but also our community on the national and international stage. Here’s a glimpse into our upcoming endeavors:
• June 15th-23rd: Jeremy and Coach will be embarking on a journey to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to compete at the 2024 Nationals. Their sights are set on securing qualification for the Youth Pan-American Championships.
• June 20th-24th: Our dedicated athlete, Timothy, alongside his Coach, will proudly represent Team USA in Columbia at the Junior Pan-American Championships, demonstrating the caliber of talent nurtured at ODC Barbell.
• September 19th-27th: Timothy and his Coach, as members of Team USA, will venture to Leon, Spain, to compete in the Junior World Championships, aiming to bring glory to our organization and country.
• December 4th-9th: We will unite as a team in Tucson, Arizona, for the American Open Finals, a crucial qualifier for the 2025 international competitions, where our athletes will strive to make their mark on the global stage.
These events are not just opportunities for our athletes to excel; they are moments for our community to rally behind them, showing our unwavering support and belief in their potential. However, such endeavors come with significant financial commitments, including travel expenses, competition fees, and equipment costs.
This is where you come in. Your generous contributions can make a world of difference in helping us provide our athletes with the resources they need to succeed. Donations can be made conveniently through Venmo at ODC-Barbell or PayPal at [email protected]. Every contribution, no matter the size, plays a pivotal role in fueling the dreams of our athletes.
In addition, mark your calendars for our upcoming yard sale on May 24th and 25th! By participating in this event, you not only snag some fantastic finds but also directly support our nonprofit organization. We welcome donations of gently used items for the yard sale, so if you have anything you’d like to contribute, please reach out to us. Your donations and support help pave the way for our athletes’ success.
Together, let’s make a difference in the lives of our youth athletes. Share this post, spread the word, and join us in empowering the champions of tomorrow. Thank you for your generosity and support!
Sincerely,
[Tim Davis
Head Coach
