Thank you Kabir and Project Elevate for supporting me and my dreams to represent India at Asian Boulder Championship. I am grateful to all the donors who supported me, so I could fly to Hongkong and compete. I am back in India, loaded with learnings and motivated to train harder and work towards my future competitions .

Aman Verma

Professional Climber, India team

My name is Aman verma. I was a volleyball player and I started climbing in middle school, and I totally loved the sport! I got sponsorship from TATA STEEL during my school, but that ended once I was over 18 years. I have never missed a National Podium in all the years I have competed and I was Semi finalist in Youth World Climbing Cup as well. 

Thanks to Project Elevate I was able to receive treatment for my shoulder which enabled me to compete in international competitions this year including the Asian Youth Cup. I received funding towards doctor's appointments, rehab and therapy, and maintaining a diet of protein and nutrition. Project Elevate also covered my expenses for training for National Championship in 2025. As a result of all this timely support and my rehabilitation, I was able to bounce back and I received a Bronze Medal in Lead Climbing in Nationals 2025- the only one from my category in my zone. Thank you Kabir!

My name is Sachin Saroj and I am a professional sports climber from India. I began my climbing journey in 2017, and since I have achieved success in various competitions at both zonal, national, and international levels.
