Donation from the funds of the Venø Rotary Donation Tour awarded

A FISA referee from Ukraine, Viktoriia Maydachevska, had the idea. In order to keep the emergency rowing programme going, she asked the DR if German rowing clubs could donate decommissioned boats or ergometers to Ukraine. The DRV publicised this request and in the end a trailer with 11 boats arrived at the gates of the Amicitia rowing club in Mannheim.

But material is not everything. Transport also needs to be financed. The International Fellowship of Rowing Rotarians (IfoRR) provided the missing amount from the donations from the Rotary Venø Donation Tour organised last year, the proceeds of which were also to be donated to rowing in Ukraine. However, we were a little sceptical about the timing. But the Ukrainians convinced us of the importance and significance of sport in a country affected by war.
