Kousturi Sharmah, National Arm Wrestling Champion, Starts Ketto Fundraiser to Reach World Championships

National –  Ketto, India’s crowdfunding platform, is dedicated to empowering individuals and communities by providing a platform for raising funds. Today, we are proud to support Kosturi Sharmah, a national arm wrestling champion, in her journey to represent India.

At 52 years old, Kosturi is proving that age is just a number, and her unyielding dream is to showcase her talent worldwide. Despite past setbacks due to a lack of government support, Kosturi’s passion has grown stronger.

Years ago, Kosturi had the opportunity to compete internationally, but financial constraints halted her promising career. Now, with the unwavering support of her husband and son, she has made a triumphant return to the sport.

At the 4th National Arm Wrestling Championship 2024, Kosturi dominated the Grandmaster Category (70 Kg), winning two gold medals for both left and right hands. Her victories were celebrated by the local newspapers and news channels, showcasing the dedication she poured into her comeback.

This triumph opened a remarkable door: she has been selected to represent India at the Asian Championship in Bangalore (August 22-26, 2024) and the World Arm Wrestling Championship in Greece (September 30-October 6, 2024).

However, Kosturi faces the same hurdle she did 28 years ago – financial limitations. Despite their best efforts, her family, has poured everything they have into supporting her dream. As a dedicated mother, Kosturi knows this might be her last shot.

At 52, time isn’t on her side. The thought of letting this dream slip away again due to finances is heartbreaking. She has been training relentlessly for the past three months, pushing her limits. The only thing standing in her way is a lack of funds.

Speaking on the same , Varun Sheth, Founder & CEO says, “We take immense pride in Kosturi Sharma’s triumphant return to arm wrestling and her recent national victories.

As she sets her sights on representing India at the upcoming Asian and World Championships, we encourage the entire community to stand united in her support. We can help Kosturi achieve her dreams and bring international titles home by coming together.

Let’s offer her the backing she needs to continue her remarkable journey and showcase India’s strength on the global stage. We are calling on all generous individuals and organizations to come forward and contribute to this inspiring cause.

Any contribution, big or small, will cover travel expenses, competition fees, and training costs. Your support will be a lifeline, allowing Kosturi to represent India on the international stage proudly.”

This victory isn’t just for Kosturi; it’s for all the mothers who dare to dream and never give up. Join us in making this dream a reality. Donate today on Ketto and be a part of Kosturi Sharmah’s incredible journey.
