WHy We Need Your Support

Luge athletes at the entry levels of the sport are self-funded, with no direct financial support provided by USA Luge or the United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee. Our expenses include program fees, lodging and food at the Olympic & Paralympic Training Center, equipment (like booties, spikes, and helmets), transportation, and race entry fees. (And with two kids in the sport, that’s double the expenses for our family!)

How You Can Help

If you feel inclined to help lend your support, you can help Brady and Ian follow their Olympic dreams by:

  • Following along with their journey via this page or social media, and sharing with your own friends and family. We love seeing your encouragement and support!
  • Making a donation to their athlete training funds (linked below). United States Luge Association is a 501(c)(3) organization and your contribution is tax-deductible. Any amount, small or large, helps further their training and is greatly appreciated.
