We earned a spot to represent Philly and USA on the world stage! Discovery Pathways Youth Dragon Boat Team has earned a berth to compete at the World Championships in Taiwan in August 2026!!
We need your help to spread our story or donate if you can. With @dpdragonboat
After 74 practices and a season of strong finishes, 12 South Philly youth will represent our community as a Small Boat crew. All are from low-income families, most are immigrants or refugees, and nearly all were new to sports just two years ago. They earned this opportunity.
We are raising funds to cover flights, registration, and basic travel costs. Families cannot afford this, and we will not place that burden on them. We will travel and stay as affordably as possible.
A donor is matching every gift over $50 — so $100 becomes $200.
If you’re able, please donate and share. Link in bio.

Tiana is our next incredible senior we are featuring. She’s only been in Discovery Pathways for 1 year, but it feels like she’s been a part of the DP family forever. Tiana is the kindest person and works so hard! She got into Villanova and has already gotten many scholarships. Give it up for Tiana!! With @tianato.to
Boating is on for tomorrow! If it starts raining bad or thunder we will end early. All are welcome! Cloudy days can be the best to come. No lines. Come enjoy Saturday.
Sadly our Go Fund Me for the Youth Dragon Boat Team has been hacked and they shut it down 😢. We will still get most of the money and will post a new link when it’s fixed. Thanks! They tried to bury us but they didn’t know we were seeds!
So proud of Eh! Another OG discovery pathways leader. We are sad to see him go! No one will replace his dance moves and humor. Studying marine biology- so cool! Give him a big congrats
