Austrian swimmer Markus Rogan raised $40.000 for children in Ethiopia and India this evening, by auctioning off his Dubai silver and bronze medals at a Tesfaye/ Zukunft für Kinder fundraiser in Vienna. Tesfaye means “my hope”, and is a child sponsorship project founded in 2008, currently supporting 100 children aged between 4 and 19 years, living under very poor conditions in two districts of Addis Ababa, Yeka and Arada Kebele. Zukunft für Kinder is a similar project trying to help out the many thousand street children living in the red light districts of Calcutta.
