UKRAINE - HUMANITARIAN RELIEF FUNDRAISER
20/04/2025 23:30:00UKRAINE - HUMANITARIAN RELIEF FUNDRAISER at the RS Aero Europeans
The war in Ukraine continues and as a Class it is important to do what we are able to, to help relieve the humanitarian suffering there.
Boris Mezhibovskiy is competing in our Europeans for the USA. He was born in the Ukraine and later moved to the USA. His birth town of Kherson was submerged after the destruction of the Kakhovka dam, further increasing the humanitarian crises. Additionally Sofia Naumenko is a Ukranian entry to our European Championships and a keen competitor for the past two years, winning both the RS Aero 6 European and World Championships in 2024.
The suffering in the Ukraine continues whilst we enjoy our sailing in the paradise of Lake Garda, only a short flight away….
Boris and I have a plan, similar to what we arranged at the Sardinia Worlds in 2023, to help support the humanitarian relief charities working in the Ukraine. We have sourced mini Ukrainian sail sticker flags which are a quarter the size of each nation's sail flags. They will be available free at Registration and may be placed on sails
alongside your own national flag as a sign of support.

Donations are invited to a choice of three Ukrainian relief charities assisting with a mix
of childhood, medical and refugee needs. QR codes to the charities will be available at Registration, on the Notice Board and in the flier below.
Thank you for any support that you are able to give!
Here are the weblinks of the charities in the QR codes;
