Hi Everybody,

Thank you for clicking on my donation link. I’m trying to raise funds to help me get to the 2024 World Rowing Championships in Canada in August this year. I’ve just been selected for the Under 23 Australia Rowing Team. As part of the process, I have to move to Sydney for training for the next 4 months before we depart for a final training camp in the USA before the competition. The past few years I have been fortunate to work a full-time job as an apprentice fire sprinkler fitter and support myself through my rowing career.

Due to having to relocate for training, I’ve had to leave my job for the 5-month long campaign, and I am unable to work because of my training hours. I still have to pay my rent, eat and pay a sizable contribution to the trip, so I’ve just made this donation link in the hope that I can raise some much needed money to support myself for these next few months as I follow my dream.

Any donations would be appreciated so much. Thank you for anything you can contribute!

Jarrod Lord
