The suggested donation for this is $50 per person who smash an egg, which can be made through the GetYolked4Rio website at www.getyolked4rio.com. However, your donation is totally up to you.
Each person is asked to challenge three other people to do the same and to donate on the #GetYolked4Rio website at www.getyolked4rio.com.
A group of 100 prominent wrestling people have taken the challenge to #GetYolked4Rio, and will be posting videos during the next 24 hours.
2000 Olympic Gold Medalist and Assistant National Freestyle Coach Brandon Slay has posted his video to get the ball rolling today.
Other elite wrestlers like Kurt Angle, Reece Humphrey, Chuck Yagla, Dan Henderson, Jim Scherr, Gene Mills and Andy Bisek, to name just a few, have agreed to participate with the kick off on December 1.
In this final year leading up to the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio we are hoping to raise much needed funds for preparation, training, competition and a variety of other Olympic-year costs. Well-funded programs are critical in the effort to become the best. The ultimate goal is to bring home gold medals from the Olympic Games. We rely largely on private donations to support our athletes and programs.
