The Journey Fund is a non-profit memorial fund in honor of Grandmaster Michael Amodeo (1947-2006)
He was an exceptional person and martial artist who always spoke about the importance of focusing on the journey. For more than 30 years Grandmaster Amodeo nurtured countless students in their quest to be the best martial artists that they could become. He believed martial arts is a journey that leads to the warrior within, that it's a path of self-discovery that provides positive growth throughout one's life. We want to carry on his vision and this fund will help pave the way by providing financial support to cover training costs and related expenses to deserving martial art students.
T he Fund was able to cover the cost of competitions for many martial artists in 2012. From tournament fees to travel costs. Students from around the state benefited from this non-profit memorial fund.
Please come 'Share the Spirit.'
