The National Inclusive Committee won the “Our Contribution” national award in the “NGO” category, confirming its high status as one of the country’s leading public organizations in the field of social initiatives, adaptive sports, and inclusive development.
With this award, the Committee officially confirmed its status as a “Partner of National Projects” for its initiatives related to the “Youth and Children,” “Family,” “Environmental Well-Being,” and the “Sport of Russia” state program.
The awards ceremony was a landmark event for representatives of business, the nonprofit sector, and development institutions whose projects make a tangible contribution to improving people’s quality of life. Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Alexander Novak presented the first-place award to Alexander Smirnov, President of the National Inclusive Committee.
This victory recognizes the extensive and systematic work of the Committee, which provides significant support to Russian regions in the development of adaptive and inclusive sports. By 2025, the organization’s charitable programs had reached over 1,000,000 beneficiaries, and its initiatives had become an important part of creating an accessible, modern, and truly inclusive environment for children, youth, families, and people with disabilities.
The IMPULSE International Adaptive Sports Festival, which has been held for three years with the support of the DobroFON Charity Program, has attracted particular attention from the expert community.
Today, it is the largest festival in the world in terms of the number of adaptive and inclusive sports, as well as the number of participants. The project has become a shining example of how sport can be not only a platform for achievement, but also a powerful tool for socialization, rehabilitation, unity, and the development of human potential. The festival is part of Russia’s national projects and the state program “Sport of Russia,” reaffirming its high level of social significance.
