Your annual gift of $1,000 to the Lift Club provides hardship funds and scholarships for athletes who can’t afford the costs, giving someone else a “lift” and making the sport an accessible reality, not an out-of-reach luxury.

“max out” CLUB

$2,500

One-Time Gift of $2,500 or 4-Year QUAD commitment of $2,500 each year

Our USA Weightlifting athletes don’t receive any government funding on their road to bringing home the gold and rely on support from donors like you.
