Roger Federer, “horrified” by the images from Ukraine, announced on Friday that he would donate 500,000 dollars (452,000 euros), via his foundation, in favor of refugee children so that they can continue their education.

“My family and I are horrified by the images coming from Ukraine and our eyes are broken to see these innocent people who are so terribly affected. We want peace“, writes the legendary tennis player in a message posted on social networks.

“About 6 million Ukrainian children no longer have access to school (…) we would like to help them cope with this extremely traumatic experience”, he continues. “The Roger Federer Foundation will support the War Child Holland association with a donation of $500,000 to enable Ukrainian children to continue their education”, concludes the Swiss.
