Reliance foundation founder chairperson

Reliance Foundation Young Champs Academy:   International Olympic Committee (IOC) president Thomas Bach lauded Reliance Foundation and Nita Ambani on the opening day of the IOC Executive Board meeting, here on Thursday.

Bach said seemed impressed with what he saw on his visit to Reliance Foundation Young Champs Academy in Navi Mumbai.

“I had a visit together with our IOC colleague and friend Nita Ambani to their Reliance Foundation and the programmes they're offering there to the kids and youth with regard to sport and education. I'm really deeply impressed by Reliance and her team because you see kids from all over India in this centre. And most of them are coming from underprivileged families and they are being offered education and schooling. But at the same time, they are given the opportunity to train and to prepare for becoming an athlete, a high-level athlete," said Bach.
