Volleyball unites!
In 2013 at one of the most beautiful places of Yekaterinburg Kharitonov garden the Volleyball alley was laid by national teams’ players joined by young athletes of “Uralochka” volleyball school along with orphanage children brought by charity foundation “Our children”. World volleyball stars and growing champions planted perennial bushes, created this Alley as a sign of unity, friendship and support. This year, before opening of the Yeltsin Cup 2014 players will visit Volleyball alley to support this goodwill tradition.
We are together!
We live in Yekaterinburg and are proud of our city and our sportsmen. We come to stadiums and halls to express our support and to contribute emotionally to their great victories. Yeltsin Cup organizing committee, volleyball club “Uralochka” and charitable foundation “We are together” invite everybody to take part in a charity lottery to support one young person and help him to gain the most important victory in his life.
During five game days everybody will be able to buy a lottery ticket. All prizes are given by national teams – participants of Yeltsin Cup – and by organizing committee. Each day prize drawing will be held during the last match.
All raised funds will be given for treatment of Alesha Vasilyev, 5-year old boy who is fighting during several years with a serious cancer disease. Oncology doctors of Children’s hospital №1 and their colleagues from Munich help Alesha to overcome his disease.
Organizing committee is thankful personally Olga Kotlyarova and charitable foundations “Our children” and “We are together” for all acts of kindness that they take.
