CHEERFIT AMBASSADOR FEATURE: CHRISTINA CONTICCHIO
The CHEERFIT ambassador community is filled with leaders and motivators who all share a passion for fitness, love for cheering and drive to help inspire others.
Our ambassadors share with us their personal stories and obstacles they overcome along the way. We have an amazing community of athletes who fuel their passion and determination with the CHEERFIT lifestyle. They also share with us how they have overcome certain obstacles and change negative experiences into a positive new way. This week we meet Christina, an art major at her school and also an all-star cheerleader. She shares with us her passions and what she does to change the world around her. We are so proud to share with you our ‘Ambassador of the Week’ feature with Christina Conticchio!
CAN YOU SHARE WITH US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOUR JOURNEY AND HOW YOU GOT TO WHERE YOU ARE TODAY?
I love to draw and create stuff. I’m an art major at a magnet school and hope to be a veterinarian one day!
I’m highly involved in stopping bullying at school. I’ve been bullied because of my height and I’ve had friends at school who have also been bullied.
We stand up for each other and others and always report it – bullying needs to stop.
Something me and my friends started in 6th grade at our Middle school was a donation box for cancer research. We gather change and sell pencils and little items. All the money goes into the box that we keep in our Dean’s office. This is our last year as 8th graders and at the beginning of this year we have gathered $2,000 . . .at the end of our school year we will donate it all to a local cancer research and cancer survivor support facility. We hope we can reach the $3000 mark!
