The U.S. Association of Blind Athletes (USABA) manages Athlete Development Accounts (ADA), which are checking accounts that allow current members to fundraise in order for donors to make tax-deductible contributions to USABA on behalf of the USABA member.
Athletes can then in turn use the donations contributed to the
member’s personal ADA to offset training and competition expenses.
Any donation you can make will help make it possible for Matt to train with a coach, have the necessary equipment, and travel to required track and field events on his journey to make the U.S. Paralympics Track and Field Team for the 2016 Paralympics. USABA staff manages all of the money so any donation will only be used towards Matt's training goal. Please use the following link to make a donation:

Thank you for your support and generosity!
