A road to Olympics for a 20-year-old Dutch boxer via crowdfunding platform WHIRL
Welcome Sammy Wagensveld and his biggest dream to represent his country at the Olympic Games. Sammy is a member of the Dutch Olympic boxing team and recently came across WHIRL crowdfunding platform, which makes any dream come true!
WHIRL infuses a new source of capital into projects, passions, and obligations, without having to ship rewards, ask friends and family for donations or take out expensive loans. Blockchain-based WHIRL lets anyone back campaigns with a dozen major cryptocurrencies, and soon fiat for fair fundraising goals.
An ambitious Sammy combines a lot of practice boxing, as well as studying at the University of Rotterdam, so he needs help to finance some of his athletic expenses on the way to Olympics! All sports expenses are currently paid by Sammy’s parents and so he decided to start a crowdfunding campaign together with WHIRL. Responsibly, Sammy does not want to hold parents pulling constant checks out.
Sammy’s goal is $12,000 and the money will be used for his travel expenses, equipment and training camps. His campaign is already live at WHIRL, so anyone kind enough and understanding the problem of trying to combine professional sport with studying can support Sammy’s dream to conquer the way to the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
He is already proven great results, one of his highlight achievements was the match against Munkh-Erdene Uranchimeg from Mongolia, who was the bronze medallist at the 2012 Olympic Games. Sammy won this match. Sammy is currently competing in 69KG A-class weight class.
WHIRL Team wishes Sammy best of luck, and hopes one day to watch an Olympic match with him!
