David O'Connor's Fundraiser
Help young kids to feel empowered
I love helping other kids, please help me raise money for a great program
We are no longer accepting donations on this campaign, but there are other ways for you to support us today!
Thousand Waves is a mission-driven not-for-profit in the city of Chicago that has been active in the community for over 32 years with a mission to foster fitness, healing, empowerment, and peacemaking.
Spirit Challenge Fundraiser supports Thousand Waves' work in three critical areas:
- Scholarships, which provide funding for children and adults who wouldn't otherwise be able to study karate or self-defense.
- Adapted Seido Karate (ASK), a partnership with Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago that provides karate for youth with disabilities.
- Self-Defense/Violence Prevention, which provides Self-defense and Bystander Intervention workshops and courses all over the city.
Thousand Waves' name comes from the Japanese saying, "One wave sets thousands in motion." Just one donation will go a long way to helping me meet my goal for Thousand Waves. Thank you for your support!
