Solibad - Interview with founder Raphael Sachetat

A Year On Tour With Vittinghus - A Badminton Podcast

Hi everyone,

In this episode, which has been available on patreon.com/vittinghus for a few days as a video podcast, I'm interviewing Raphael Sachetat, the founder of Solibad, a charity organization that uses badminton to create programs and help underprivileged children around the world.

I'm sure most of you, if not all, are already aware of Solibad and how fund I am of supporting them. So it was about time to get Raphael on to talk a bit deeper about the background of the charity and the work they do.

Raphael shares his background as a journalist and photographer in the badminton industry and explains how Solibad started. We talk about the Solibad projects in Bekasi, Indonesia, and also in Madagascar, where they provide support and opportunities for children in need.

We also talk about Solibad Days, a fun(d)raising event that aims to raise awareness and funds for the organization.

I hope you all find it interesting and if you want to donate or just learn more about the amazing work they all do, please go visit solibad.net. Remember 100% of all donations go directly to supporting the projects. All administrative fees are covered privately by the amazing volunteers behind Solibad!

Enjoy everyone!
