How does being a CAN Fund recipient make a difference for you?
This funding will really help me to pay for visas, hotels, competition fees, and many other expenses that really add up when you have over 10 competitions per season. It will definitely take the edge off so my stress levels around my ability to afford to compete will decrease.
