Colorado Nonprofit Teaches Ukrainian War Amputees to Rock Climb
Reported byExplorersWeb ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
Paradox Sports, a Colorado nonprofit, traveled to Ukraine in early August 2026 and taught 35 Ukrainian veterans with combat-related amputations and disabilities how to rock climb over 5 days, using adaptive techniques and special prosthetics. The war has produced roughly 100,000 amputees across Ukraine since 2022.
The training was a one-time 5-day program; sustained support and outcomes for participants are not described.
