Dreamfuel – 2016 Olympic Qualifier for Puerto Rico

Erik’s goal is to raise $5,000 to offset the cost of competing and training over the next year for the Olympic Games.

These funds will also help Erik to support his daughters while he continues to train. Funds raised in addition to his initial goal will help to pay for his expenses from competing in the grand prix circuit in the US.

Erik Risolvato started swimming in 2007 in a country club summer league and first started competing in 2008, after he watched Michael Phelps win his 8 gold medals. Ever since then, Erik has been motivated to be the fastest swimmer that he can be. In the summer of 2011, Erik was the junior national champion in the 50 meter freestyle and he also competed in the 2012 Olympic trials. Erik finished third in the 2012 Junior Pan Pacific Games in the 50 meter freestyle.


We are proud to support all the swimming related Dreamfuel campaigns with a $100 donation each and want to thank all of our premium members who make this possible!


About Dreamfuel

Dreamfuel is the premier high-level crowd-funding platform specifically designed by and for athletes. They work with each athlete or athletic organization to tap into the community that surrounds them, thereby engaging new fans and supporters along the way.

There is an assumption that all Olympians, Olympic hopefuls and elite athletes have sponsors. This is far from the case, as 85% of Olympic hopefuls’ income is less than 15k USD / year. Dreamfuel’s goal is to provide athletes with a new revenue stream to support their incredible efforts outside of or in addition to the traditional means of sponsorships and governing body stipends.
