Two-time Olympic champion Olga Harlan put up for a charity auction the saber she used to make the winning shot in the final of the team tournament of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
Auction from the sale of sabers was announced by the charitable fund of Serhiy Prytula.
All funds collected at the auction will go towards the purchase of automated turrets “Sabre”. It will be possible to compete for a prize from the Olympic champion on August 15 at 19:00 on Serhiy Prytula's Facebook and YouTube pages.
The Foundation announces an auction for the sale of Olga Harlan's saber. The most decorated Ukrainian athlete in the history of the Olympic Games handed us the saber that was used to deliver the winning shot in the final fencing match at the Olympic Games in Paris. This saber has already brought gold to Ukraine, and we will make it useful at the front! – the Foundation's message says.
Also, the foundation has created a separate “bank” where for a donation of 200 hryvnias you can take part in a raffle for a flag with Harlan's autograph. The owner of the largest donation will receive a prize – “Coffee with Olga Harlan”.
