For
Donors and volunteers supporting youth jiu-jitsu programs
Worth noticing
The group says a 50-pound checked bag carries 11–16 gis weighing 3.1–4.5 pounds each.

Field notes

The page offers more than a donation button: visitors can offer gis, mats, hygiene products, professional services, or help with events and logistics. Its four-part account of the work includes seminars and instructor development as well as equipment, and the collective says it works with local leaders and returns after visits. Monthly donors are assigned belt levels from White Belt at $10 per month to Black Belt at $100.
