UPDATE: Ahwatukee Jr. Olympian fully funded to participate in 2018 Jr. Olympics

Macy Eide has been playing hockey since the seventh grade and has had a dream of making it to the Olympics for four years now.

In May, she found out her dream would turn into a reality come July when she was offered to represent the U.S. Jr. Olympic team.

With Eide finding out the good news so close to her departure date, it made being financially prepared for the trip an issue.

A GoFundMe was created in late May in hopes to raise $5,500 for Eide’s trip July 18 to July 29.

With only three days before her departure, Eide had only raised $1,910. Then, on Monday, The Thunderbirds, who host the Waste Management Phoenix Open, stepped in and donated $3,600 to the GoFundMe putting Macy’s funds over what she had asked for.

Now, Eide will get the chance to represent her country at the 2018 Jr. Olympic games.
