Half of the world’s population lives on less than $1 a day, and $1 mobilized from each person in a community or network has the power to effect a great deal of change (the pun, of course, is intended).
I know that if I can get this message to you, and then you to everyone you know and each person along the way gives just at least $1, we can collectively have a huge impact on making Lift for Hope III a huge success and in-turn help support and fund three great athletes that will be taking a crack at bringing a gold medal home for the USA.
What is Lift For Hope?
Lift for Hope is a 3rd annual Charity Strength Sports Event. This year’s "Lift for Hope" again will be a one day NAHA sanctioned Highlander State Championship and APF sanctioned deadlift meet held in Gilbert Az.

A Charity Strength Sports Event, By Strength Athletes, for Athletes

In 2010 the founder Phil Stevens has decided to take the charities giving’s in a new direction. In the two previous years he used the event to raise money for first an American Cancer Society camp for children, then last year The Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Az. This year he is changing the focus to a by strength athletes for strength athletes event. Proceeds raised will support three strength athletes that compete on the international level for the United States Of America.

Strength athletics in the USA, unlike our international counterparts, have become the unfunded evil steps sister to team athletics and other single athlete events such as gymnastics, sprinting, and swimming. Heavy athletes as a whole have taken a huge hit in the USA. Across the board the athletes put years of dedication, blood, sweat and tears in the hopes of bringing home gold for our country with little to no accolades and recognition let alone funding. These athletes are scrapping by, training endless hours in our honor to shoot for a goal greater than most even dare to dream, all the while scrapping by on a few peanuts and chicken soup while working a part time job that will allow them to keep the training schedule of an elite athlete. A schedule that athletes around the globe, and athletes in other sports in their own country, get to keep while being funded and allowed to vent all of their energy into their training. In Other words without the hassle of having to make a living.

It’s amazing that we still stand as very competitive in some of the sports with such a variance in the support received compared to our competition, and there is no question as to why we are not more competitive. It’s the lack of funding. It is time we the people lend a hand to even our playing field for our hard training strength athletes. That is what Phil is doing, and you can help with your $1 donations for Lift For Hope III. The charitable profits raised will go to support three athletes that compete on the international level for our country. One Olympic Weight Lifter (Sarah Robles), one Power lifter (IPF Masters Class Team USA) , and one Thrower (Olympic Hammer Thrower Loree Smith) will receive equal checks from Lift For Hope to help supplement the cost of their training and hard work in representing us.

That $1 in your pocket is worth far more than you think. Your dollar and just one dollar from every person who will listen will make literally zero negative impact on your and their lives. It will however make a huge positive impact on the lives of these athletes. An impact in aiding funding these athletes and their training / travel while representing you, and your country on the international stage. As well positive impact on you by knowing your simple $1 sacrifice went so far.

Please take the time to follow the pay pal link below and make a simple donation of $1, then pass this email on to every person you know who may listen and contribute. If we all join together we can make a huge difference letting these athletes do their part for us.
