Isle of Man representation at the Special Olympics in China could be in jeopardy unless the team can raise another £20,000.
The overall cost of the trip for the 30 competitors and 12 coaches is £50,000, of which two thirds has already been collected.
Further fundraising events are in the pipeline, but Team Manager Graham Davies is hoping Island businesses and residents will respond to the appeal:
