AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM MANNY OSBORNE-PARADIS – CANADIAN ALPINE SKI TEAM
My name is Manny Osborne-Paradis and I am a member of the Canadian Alpine Ski Team.
I grew up ski racing in Whistler, British Columbia, and am now living in Calgary, Alberta. Through hard work and dedication, I have been a member of the Canadian alpine ski team for 12 years. Throughout my career, I have reached the World Cup podium several times, and competed in multiple Olympic Games. My teammates and I are now headed to Europe to race in the Audi FIS Ski World Cup and aim to be competitive on the world stage, bringing home podium results for my country.
Although ski racing is an individual sport, there is a comprehensive team of specialists behind me, consisting of world-class coaches, ski technicians, physiotherapists, medical staff, and many more, that have enabled me to succeed. With the support of Alpine Canada Alpin, I continue to follow my dreams and represent Canada proudly.
I am writing today to ask for your help in ensuring that my teammates and I can continue to succeed. Our team relies upon the generosity of Canadians to donate and support our programs. In order to continue our pursuit, we must raise $400,000 over the next few months, to ensure that our athletic programs are properly funded, as we prepare for next year’s World Championships and the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang, South Korea.
Please support my teammates by making a donation today at: http://alpinecanada.org/donate. All donations are tax deductible and you will be making a difference in the life of an athlete. For donations over $50.00, Alpine Canada Alpin will send you a #CanSkiTeam inspired thank you gift, as detailed on the donation page.
On behalf of all the athletes you’ll be supporting, thank you for believing in the Canadian National Ski Teams.
Sincerely,
Manny Osborne-Paradis
