What is Needed

Gymnasts in Ukraine are in need of athletic tape and grips. You can donate tape via Amazon and grips by sending funds to Rustam so he can purchase those and get them to the Ukrainian Gymnastics Federation and the gymnasts who need these items.

In the midst of war, these athletes are doing their best to focus on representing their country in various competitions, hoping to compete in the World Championships. These athletes show an exceptional kind of bravery and courage in focusing on what they CAN do by representing their country through sport. You can help them!
