Downey cheerleaders are fundraising in hopes they can attend a national cheerleading competition in Dallas next month.  

The cost would be approximately $15,000 to send all 26 varsity cheerleaders to the competition.

The girls are recycling bottles and cans, selling donuts, and hosting yard sales.

The community can also help by making a donation online at gofundme.com/DowneyCheer
