Olympics Tokyo, 2020

Unifi Foundation supports Ganapathy and Varun, sailors from Chennai. They grew up racing against each other and, in 2011, paired up to start sailing on the 29er class of boat – the feeder for the current Olympic boat. They dropped out of school in 2009 and have been sailing full time since then. Sailing is not a hobby or a small part of their life. It’s their profession and passion. The highlight of their career is their participation in Olympics Tokyo, 2020 representing India in the 49er men category. Unifi is proud of our association and our small contribution to India’s Olympics dreams.
