Rowing for Refugees

The EUI Rowing Team organised a fundraising-sale of sports gear on the EUI Christmas market, donating the proceeds to the EUI Refugee Initiative.

265 EUR was the sublime outcome of the sale of new and good as new training clothes donated by members of the EUI rowing club and professional members of the local rowing community. On their market stall in the Teatro the team members sold technical items such as rowing one-pieces, gilets and sweatsuits, as well as useful items for everyday training like shorts, sweaters and polo-shirts. The sale was very well received and many a sportswoman and man made a great bargain.

The earnings will be used to organize sportive activities for the refugees, as well as to buy sports equipment for them. The EUI Refugee Initiative thanks all rowers for their generous support!
