Haley & Zoey Sines Memorial Scholarship, Marshall University

06/08/2022

Hello supporters! Wanted to pass this fundraiser along—especially since it is Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈

One of my siblings is facing discrimination in Alabama and we are trying to move her closer to us as we are in an LGBTQ friendly area. Community, affirmation, and love are such important factors in our daily lives and do so much to influence our mental health. Everyone deserves to be respected and treated with dignity! Help us get Everette to a safe place!

After an acceptable period of suspense...

YES! Bridget Ajinga was correct...we hit 15k!

7 races, 150 race tickets, 130 medals, 200 shirts, and a few hundred supporters later...and we have ourselves a fully funded scholarship endowment in memory of Haley and Zoey 😃

Thank you to everyone who contributed, and if you’d still like to make a donation, funds will be accepted for the endowment through Marshall indefinitely.

As I prepare to head back to the states I’m putting race activity on hold. Still hoping to one day officially establish “Team SINES,” but until then, check in from time-to-time for updates.

Matane.

I have some pretty sweet news for the Team SINES and HZS Scholarship fans 😀

First person to guess it gets a package of scholarship bracelets and Japanese candies!

Flashback pictures to the 2018 race that started Team SINES! What a beautiful day and awesome swim.

The next Team SINES medal draft is out! Trying to gauge interest before I open the virtual race sales online.

There’s a new race medal in the works! Here’s a hint to the theme...COVID shut it down for 2020, bit it’s not the olympics. Those in Japan will be much more familiar 😃

Friends-we’re so close to hitting the magic 15k required for the endowment to run in perpetuity!

We have $12,603 as of today!

Hoping for a big push to close out July...maybe we can fund the scholarship endowment before the close of Zoey’s month. Every little bit counts! 😊

(When you donate through our GoFundMe page the money is automatically sent to the MU Foundation in regular intervals...no middle-man!)

Team Sines will raise money for the Haley and Zoey Sines Memorial Scholarship Endowment through Marshall University through community building events that focus on mental and physical well being. The scholarship is in memory of my two sisters, Haley (10) and Zoey (5), who were killed in 2008. ...
