We are the UTD Taekwondo Club, and our mission is to create an inclusive space for UTD students and faculty to practice taekwondo on campus. We offer high-quality training while fostering a vibrant community where members can socialize and connect. Our bi-monthly belt tests encourage members to challenge themselves, track their progress and grow as martial artists.
We are excited to introduce our project, TaeKwonDonate, aimed at raising funds for travel expenses and shared club equipment. As our club has nearly doubled in size since spring 2024, more members are eager to participate in tournaments. Our first tournament of the semester in San Antonio was a fantastic experience and we hope to offer more members the chance to join in future events. The funds raised will help cover costs like gas and hotel accommodations, as well as purchase essential sparring gear to enhance our training experience.
Our goal is to raise $1,000. This amount is critical, as travel expenses for long-distance trips and sparring gear can be costly. By lessening some of the financial burden on our members, we can better support their martial arts journeys. Once we reach our goal, we plan to allocate $600 for travel expenses, covering gas and hotel stays for competitive members. The remaining funds will be used to purchase five-seven sets of sparring gear, including chest protectors, arm guards and shin guards.
As one of the few martial arts clubs representing UTD, we are committed to promoting the University and supporting our diverse student body. By ensuring that all members have access to adequate sparring gear, we aim to enhance the training experience while minimizing injury risks.
This marks our first year back as a club and we are eager to provide an exciting and unique experience for our members. Through TaeKwonDonate, we aspire to build a supportive community where everyone can create lasting memories as part of the UTD Taekwondo Club.
Thank you for your support!
