Arm wrestling challenge: road trip style!
September-October 2014

Supporting scholarships from sea to shining sea! As I traveled across the country, from California to North Carolina, I arm wrestled one person in each state for every donation made to the Burkina Faso Girls! Thank you to the donors for sponsoring my arms for girls’ education! More photos & video are on our Facebook page.

Talk about strong-arm fundraising! We agreed to compete in an arm wrestling tournament if BFGSF supporters raised enough money for the girls! You met the challenge, and so Death Knight wrestled on May 17, 2014 with the League of Upper Extremity Wrestling Women of Durham (LUEWWD)! We ended up making it to the championship round and raised money at the tournament for another worthy organization as well! Photos by Jeffrey Camarati.
