Kristen Messer  

Hi my name is Kristen Messer and I am a college student as well as a wheelchair athlete.  I was born with CP and, although I can walk independently, I had to find another way to be competitive in sports.  I started wheelchair racing about nine years ago and my long term goals are to compete for the United States on the Paralympic Track Team, get a degree and coach wheelchair sports

Kristen competed in the Paralympic World Championships in New Zealand taking Bronze in both her events.    Her goal now is to continue training and working out so that she will be able to make the Paralympic Team in 2012.  Please cosider helping Kristen reach her goals by helping her to attend clinics, and travel to competitions where she can compete to achieve her goal of making the Paralympic Team.  By Clicking on the above link, you can make a tax decuctible donation which will help with the many expenses involved in training and competing

I am so grateful for the generosity of everyone who is helping me.  My mother works hard to find the means to pay for my sports equipment, travel and competition expenses, but without the support of so many people who I may never even meet, it would be financially impossible to puruse my dreams.  Thank you very much for your support.
