Tora Hylands hasn't added a story.
Here's a bit about me:
Hi, I'm Tora! I'm a Graphic Designer by trade, hailing from the Northern Beaches of Sydney, Australia. I've lived in Vancouver B.C. since 2009 and proudly call it home. In January I began training with some of the members and trainers at Eastside Boxing Club. In the last 4 months these people have had a profound impact on my life.
Here's the deal with this event:
Founded in 2012, Aprons for Gloves Boxing Association is a non-profit organization focused on providing community outreach through the sport of boxing. Based in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside, the organization was developed by a small group of professionals and entrepreneurs who seized an opportunity to re-establish a historic boxing program for at-risk women and youth. The program offers free mentorship and training to individuals who may otherwise not have the resources or support to participate in such activities. The sport of boxing teaches discipline, respect, hard work and self-control. Training results in positive self-esteem, good health and camaraderie for its practitioners.
Here's where your donation will go:
Your donation will go directly to funding the program outlined above. It will also help me qualify to be eligible for a fight in the 2015 Restaurant Rumble. Contenders must raise a minumum of $2,000 to be eligible for a fight. Not only am I trying to raise as much money as I can for this great cause, I am also hoping to get the opportunity to step into the ring for my first amateur fight. Please dontate any amount that you can, your support means the world to me.
Here's me signing off:
I know first hand the positive impact that highly disciplined physical training can have on your life. I truly believe that everyone deserves to have access to a safe space to train, develop self worth and realize their potential. Please help me fight for this great cause. Your donations are directly changing the lives of people in need of a safe and supportive community.
