ATP ACES Presents Grant To Milos Raonic Foundation

Canadian receives $15,000 for his foundation

On Sunday, the ATP ACES For Charity programme presented a $15,000 grant to the Milos Raonic Foundation, ahead of the Canadian’s appearance at the Rogers Cup.

“It’s going on four years now that I decided to start my foundation, along with my family, to really help disadvantaged kids,” said Raonic during his pre-tournament press conference. “We focused on many different things. A few days ago we announced this programme that we’re funding and challenging many other people to raise funds for. It’s the SportFIT programme and a recreation camp to help kids with cerebral palsy throughout the summer be able to get more active, to be able to socially and physically participate in more activities.

“It’s been a great honour for me to have this opportunity not only to make a difference, but also to get to work alongside these kids. Every single time I’ve gone to Holland Bloorview to see the progress the kids have made, it’s been fantastic. It’s really been special to have the continuous relationship with Holland Bloorview and to see where we can take this and hopefully make a difference in a few kids’ lives. So thank you to the ATP.”
