Send Jun Shihan Tom to New Zealand

October marks the 50th Anniversary of the Seido Karate dojo in Nelson, NZ, founded by Eiko Hanshi Andy Barber. They're planning a big celebration! I'm going to go judge a tournament, but more than that, I'm going to help maintain and build community ties with my fellow Seido karateka. It is a privilege to be part of the World Seido Karate family.

But traveling to the other side of the world isn't cheap. I'm asking for your support in this community-building endeavor.

I've set up a GoFundMe, but there are also fee-free ways to send me some of that "green energy".

You can donate here, without fees: https://catonsville.seidomd.com/support/

Or with the "traditional" GoFundMe: https://www.gofundme.com/f/send-jun-shihan-tom-to-new-zealand.
