I've been training at Aikido Kenkyukai Santa Barbara ("AKSB") since August, 2010.  AKSB is dedicated to encouraging the practice of the Japanese non-violent martial art of Aikido to promote physical health, self-esteem, and harmonious ways to resolve conflict.

I recently launched my Year-End Fundraiser on behalf of the organization.  My goal is to raise $1,000 by December 31st.  Please help me help this worthy organization!

The two main reasons I'm raising funds for AKSB are:

1. Now over half of the members of our youth programs are from qualifying low-income families who without your generous donations, would not have the opportunity to participate.
2. We've grown to be too large for our current space and are raising funds for a new dojo, as well. 

Since AKSB does not charge full cost recovery, we depend on the generosity of people like you to keep our programs going and available to everyone, regardless of socioeconomic status.

Please click on the "Give Now" button to the right and contribute.

...Or you can send your donation to:



Any amount helps and is therefore greatly appreciated.  

Thank you in advance and all the best in the coming year,

Paul
