On June 16, within the framework of the XXX All-Russian Olympic Day, a ceremony of signing the Cooperation Agreement between the Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) and the Russian Olympians Foundation (ROF) was held in Luzhniki.
The document was signed by President of the ROC Stanislav Pozdnyakov and Executive Director of the ROF Alexander Katushev.
Stanislav Pozdnyakov:
“I would like to thank the Russian Olympians Foundation, which over the years has been helping athletes to achieve high results and realize plans not only in sports, but also in life. Pavel Anatolievich Kolobkov and I were among the first grantees of the Foundation at the beginning of the 2000s, so we know about its programs from various sides”.
Alexander Katushev:
“During 14 years of the Foundation’s existence, about 70 different programs have been implemented. More than half of them were held jointly with the ROC, so the document that we have signed today only consolidated our fruitful cooperation on paper. This year we have five joint projects in our plans, and the same number is in the near future. Russian Olympians will continue to feel strong support from the Foundation”.
