Fans will be able to support the cause by joining an email list where they can get updates on the effort. Those who wish to donate to the cause can also do so through the website. A variety of petitions will also be available for those seeking to add their name to these initiatives.

Access to official statements from USA Wrestling and other leading organizations will be provided. News stories, both from the United States and from international sources will be updated regularly and can be searched. Facts about Olympic wrestling will be provided and updated. Access to videos about this cause will also be available. Fans will also be able to post their thoughts on the International Wrestling bulletin board.

This website will serve as another gateway for those seeking to make a difference in the effort to retain wrestling on the Olympic program.
