All the branches of athletics and sport are going to be covered here. Every individual and every team can have their own appeal on this system.
All athletes are invited to be represented here. The intention is to have appeals for each athlete or group of athletes representing every event in which they compete.
It is required that each appeal is for a valid cause - where the athlete(s) will contribute part of their energy and spirit to the system - and that the money raised will be used for coaching and training costs, expenses and living costs for the individuals involved while they are in training for future events and the 2012 Olympics.
Each appeal will be supplied with the system at no charge to the athlete, created, run and operated at no charge to the athlete, have the donatons processed at no charge to the athlete, have the rewards generated for the donors produced at no cost to the athlete - so it is
free to the athlete.
The athletes are expected to write their own self descriptions (although GL can offer assistance), supply their own photographs and publish lists of their training sessions and events to which the donors can be invited to offer practical and physical support to the athlete.
The causes will each have a different number of squares and a different value - representing the different needs of each athlete. Donors can select to purchase one square or several for as many different athletes as they want to support. We do expect every donor to be thanked in writing (at the least) by the athlete they have supported by their donation.
This is a two way agreement between each athlete and their supporters. Life can be difficult and expensive for the athlete, requiring a tremendous dedication to their sport and the donors provide the financial lifeline for the athletes to be able to succeed.
