September 14, 2014 – Brittany Webster, a 2-time Olympian and 2013 World Championship Team member, just recently launched a fundraising campaign with a goal of raising $19,000 for her 2015 World Cup Ski Season. “Racing professionally and inspiring others to achieve their dreams is my full-time job. I am an athlete mentor for Classroom Champions, a MitoCanada Ambassador, and an inspirational speaker for events around my community.”
Her Campaign, which can be found at https://www.pursu.it/pursuit/campaign/67 launched Sept 1, and Webster has given herself 40 days to raise the money. “My ski season this year is estimated to cost close to $30,000 if I make all of the trips I would like to qualify for. At $4-5,000 per World Cup & Scandinavian trip, things can add up pretty quick! All the money raised through my pursu.it campaign will go towards World
Cup Ski costs this year.”
Brittany’s pursu.it campaign offers some neat gifts for those who join her team. By donating between $100-1,500, donators can receive professional photographs, Olympic team gear, a downloadable yoga class taught by Brittany, a cooking class, her very own cookbook, a ski lesson, a nutrition consultation, or even a 1 night stay for 2 at Canmore’s 5star Paintbox Lodge and a massage at Wildflower. Best of all, you will be fuelling the dream of an inspiring Canadian athlete.
Not only has Brittany represented Canada on the World Stage, but she has also been an integral part of the international program Classroom Champions. It is a non-profit organization that connects Olympians with underprivileged schools around the World, inspiring them to Dream Big.
