Hi my name is Ruby I'm 17 years old and have qualified for the World Junior Taekwondo championships in Chuncheon, Korea in October 1st-6th. I'm extremely proud to be representing Australia on the world circuit.

This year being in year 12 and my training schedule 6 times a week, I have found it impossible to have part time job, so to help my parents support me I thought I would raise some funds to help cover my travel, accommodation costs.

Earlier this year I competed at the Canada and the USA opens representing Australia and won a bronze medal. This was my first international competition and my first overseas trip.

I am beyond grateful for the opportunity to compete overseas, and whilst amazing, this is self-funded and expensive. The estimated cost is $3000-$4000, any donation would be greatly appreciated.
