How to Donate

Thank you for considering a donation to the Washington Judo Academy!

As a volunteer-run 501(c)(3) nonprofit (bylaws at https://www.wajudo.com/bylaws/), our mission is to develop and promote the Olympic sport of Judo, while fostering cross-training to create well-rounded grapplers. We allocate all membership fees and donations to club development and future events, including hosting world-class judokas and Olympians like Nick Delpopolo, Haruka Tachimoto, Megumi Tachimoto, Hiroaki Hiraoka, and the phenomenal Senseis from Judo Yokohama. Your donation will help us support talented athletes in need, organize events, purchase essential equipment, and cover expenses related to hosting world-class athletes.

Our dedicated volunteers manage and maintain the dojo, often absorbing many of the associated costs. Each contribution is reinvested into our community for events, equipment, and more. Your donation will enable us to bring more world-class athletes to the Pacific Northwest.

If your employer offers donation matching, we encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to amplify your impact.
