This is a shameless plug and shout out for my daughter 11. She is raising money for cancer research by entering the Tap Out Cancer Charlotte BJJ tournament in May. The below is a link that if you wish you can Donate toward her goal. The website is pre programmed to amounts higher than I would like to see. So if your willing please just hit the custom donation and go much smaller. This is simply a thank you to the great family of our Forum. Just FYI I got the approval of The owners before posting this as a courtesy and they thankfully gave their approval. Thanks to all.

You guys have started her day on a high note. Thanks for all who have donated so far. We need to get a small CFF patch to put on her GI for the competition.
 
Bump. Y’all can do it. Throw $10-$20 toward it (or more). You’ve wasted a lot more than that on something else in the last couple weeks. :p

Blow her $250 goal out of the water.

That was my logic. $10, no big deal, I spend more on lunch most days. The girl is doing something good for herself long term and helping a good cause.

Consider this another free bump :)
 
BTT Come on Guys I know ya'll can spare a few dollars for a great cause. If you have ever had a family member or friend Fight/die/survive Cancer then this should be a cause that is close to your heart.

I didn't know if you guys got messages or not but my daughter has responded to you all. We have such a great community here she has upped her goal to 400.00. She will be selling hand made bracelets to get to this new goal. I would have never done anything like this at 11 years old.

Edit: Just checked the site again and she should have her initial goal of $250 by tonight. That’s awesome!

She is a special girl and you should be very proud of her for her efforts. As an 11 yr I would have never taken on such a project.
 
Done. I clicked on the "anonymous" tab so not sure if my name will appear. I didn't use Qball just my real name.

Man I'm beyond proud of this kid. She is one of those people that are natural leaders. Her lowest grade in school is a 94 and that even upsets her. She told me the other day she wanted to join a gym so she could be her best in this tournament. So next week we will start at the local Gym. On top of all that she's just a great kid with a huge heart. Teaches Sunday school kids class on top of everything else.
 
Done!
Congratulations on breaking the $400 goal!
P.S.
Thank you note received! Thx!

Wow, any idea if there was a family history? I have a cousin that had to have a double mastectomy for cancer but her dna test did not show any markers for it as a family condition.

I have no idea, my daughter did not talk much about it, she and her two friends participated in the celebration of life for their good friend Taylor.

I also received her thank you message. :)
