RYU CEO Cesare Fazari and boxer Dima Sumchenko
As a result of his career success, Mr. Sumchenko was selected to take part in the 10-Day Canadian Boxing Olympic Qualifying Training Camp held this week in Montreal. While seeking sponsorship to help cover his flights, food and accommodation costs for the camp, Mr. Sumchenko launched a crowdfunding campaign on the popular Go Fund Me platform.
When RYUs team caught wind of the local story, the team wanted to support Mr. Sumchenkos pursuit of Olympic glory.
Alongside providing performance training apparel and gear, RYU provided the final $2500 required in Mr. Dima Sumchenkos Go Fund Me campaign to reach the target funds necessary to seize an opportunity that athletes dream of their entire career.
Says RYU CEO Cesare Fazari, I can say with certainty that supporting an athlete like Dima is why we do what we do at RYU. Our team respects any athlete committed to their goal. The Olympics are the highest aspiration of many athletes, and the years of dedication and sacrifice are second to none. Dima is an inspiration to our team and his own students. Were behind him all the way!
Says Dima Sumchenko, Im humbled by the generosity of the RYU team. Ive been a big fan of their products and brand for years. My dream is to show my students, province and country that anything is possible if you work hard, stay dedicated and show respect. The sponsorship allowed me to focus on just my training during this intense and crucial part of the qualifying process and Im forever grateful!
