The International Charitable Foundation “Oleksandr Feldman Foundation” supports young skiers of Derhachi region (Kharkiv oblast). Recently, the foundation purchased roller skis for the children of the ski sport section of the Derhachi Youth Sports School for them to be able to train not only in winter, but in summer as well.
The Youth Sports School trainer Anna Nosatova told that near 40 children aged 8-15 train in the school. They take part in regional and all-Ukrainian competitions. The cooperation with the Oleksandr Feldman Foundation started in February, when young Derhachi skiers obtained the opportunity to train in the Feldman Ecopark. “We were provided with the opportunity to train in the picturesque place on the territory of the Ecopark twice a week. We were provided with transport, skis, and hot dinners. We are grateful for the assistance and hope for the further cooperation,” Anna Nosatova noted.
“One of the main tasks of the Oleksandr Feldman Foundation and the Feldman Ecopark is the support of children and youth. Going for sports and open-air training in the Ecopark in a wonderful alternative to sitting in front of PCs or aimless pastime on the streets for a young generation,” the director of the Feldman Ecopark Andrii Roshchupkin emphasized. He reminded that not only skiers are supported by the Ecopark in Derhachi region, it also helps the women’s volleyball team of the Kharkiv Zooveterinary Academy (Mala Danylivka village).
It should be noted that the ICF “Oleksandr Feldman Foundation” continues to support different kinds of sport within the 1,000 Teams Tournament. It should be reminded that the Tournament is a unique project for Ukraine providing the opportunity of free training and sports competitions holding. In particular, the program includes winter and summer futsal, ping-pong, park volleyball, streetball, cyclo-cross, cross-country run, chess and other sports tournaments.
