I am blessed by their belief in me and really couldn't continue competing without their support especially now that my husband was laid off. Grappling is not a must-have quite the same way that mortgages and food are (even though it's very close.)<br /><br />What I did was appeal to the companies I'd bought gear from. I think it's a little easier to get sponsors if you are a unique jitsuka-- female counts, as does physically challenged-- and a good appeal will always include objective factual data to support your claim to be good for their company. Why will people pay attention to you, how many people, what kinds of audiences do you reach? With the blog as well as competition, etc.<br /><br />Last, I'd consider some nontraditional sources-- how about support groups or national organizations for the disabled? And totally get the media involved, if you care to...<br /><br />Good luck and keep me posted! And thanks about the cake :) Haven't made time to research the turtle, yet...Georgettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08705282002904234217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30740798.post-17369819398983621072010-04-28T00:54:53.514-05:002010-04-28T00:54:53.514-05:00Hey georgette do you have sponsors?

A lot of his students use turtle to sweep as well Andre Galvao, and Cobrinha being the two most notable students so check them out as well.<br /><br />Good luck at Mundials sadly I can't be there as I can't afford the trip.<br /><br />P.S.
