We’re a hardworking family doing everything we can to support our daughter, Ellie Burrows, as she pursues her passion and talent in skateboarding.

Ellie has recently applied for a rare and potentially life-changing opportunity—to attend the first stop of the World Skate Tour in Rome this June. While we are still waiting to hear the outcome, we have very limited time to prepare in case she is selected. This kind of opportunity doesn’t come often, and if she’s offered a spot, we need to be ready to act fast.

To make this happen, Ellie will need to travel with her coach and guardian, Peter, who has been by her side every step of the way. To cover travel expenses.

Like many families, we live week to week. We’ve done everything we can to support Ellie’s journey so far—but international travel on short notice is simply beyond what we can manage alone.

This fundraiser is time sensitive. If Ellie is selected, we’ll have only a short window to book everything. That’s why we’re asking for help now—to be ready, just in case her dream becomes a reality.

Every donation, no matter the amount, will bring us closer to giving Ellie this chance. And even if you’re not in a position to donate, sharing this page with your network would mean the world to us.

Thank you for supporting Ellie and helping us make sure she’s ready if this incredible opportunity comes through.
