Sergey Bubka

IAAF Council Member Sergey BubkaSergey Bubka with children at Sport-The Bridge charity in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia

The challenge: IOC Member Sergey Bubka wanted to identify worthwhile children’s charities around the world and provide support while also promoting his sporting values.
It was important in the political world of the International Olympic Committee and IAAF that Sergey Bubka’s genuine affection to helping young people shone through.

The strategy: Calacus used its understanding of international sports organisations and high level research to identify suitable partner charities. We worked with the charities to devise workable sponsorship programmes that would make a difference to young people’s lives and undertook a speaker and media relations programme to support the new initiatives.

The outcome: Calacus obtained a wide range of coverage across the world, promoting the importance of sport as a way of helping young people in troubled areas to develop and learn vital lifeskiills. Significant donations were also made to each of the charities that Calacus identified for support.
