About the Foundation

The International Sports Foundation Parasport grew out of charitable initiatives launched by Oleg Boiko following the 2006 Turin Paralympic Winter Games. The Foundation was formally established to expand opportunities for athletes with disabilities through sport and to provide long-term support for adaptive sports initiatives worldwide.

Parasport provides financial assistance to athletes, adaptive sports organizations, and selected programs that promote inclusion, excellence, and equal opportunity.
Inspired by the vision and philanthropy of Oleg Boiko, Parasport believes that sport is a powerful force for empowerment, independence, and social inclusion.

Our Commitment

We believe every athlete deserves the opportunity to compete, succeed, and inspire others. Together with our partners and supporters, Parasport is helping build a more inclusive future through the power of sport.

Oleg Boiko says:
“The beauty of the Paralympic Movement is that the experience and achievements it provides, along with its values, are often the path to success in life outside of sports. Spreading this message is one of the main goals of Parasport as an organization.”
