Project #98
Taras lives in Kharkiv, Ukraine. He came to Norway with his wife and two daughters and participated in Zalaris Norseman Xtreme Triathlon 2023. He earned a black finisher t-shirt. After the race, the whole family returned to Ukraine. Taras does not want to live anywhere else. He wants to stay in his home town of Kharkiv. The city has been under attack by the Russian military since February 2022.
We met Taras in Ukraine a couple of weeks ago. He told us about his project: Helping Ukrainian soldiers by offering his services as a dentist. Taras had an idea to renovate cars and furnish them as mobile dentist offices. We want to help Taras with his efforts. It’s time for us to give back to #98 Taras.
Our good friends at Flimmer Film have already fundraised for the equipment to create the mobile dentist’s office. It is all ready to be installed. Now we need to buy a car to fulfill Taras’ project.
How can you support the project?
Buy one or more tickets at RaceID.se before Tuesday, December 12 at 23:59 CET. One ticket costs 5 Euro. Companies that want to support the project can email contact@nxtri.com. We will run a ballot on Wednesday, December 13, and draw one ticket to win a slot for Norseman. If you buy more tickets, your chances will be higher. The ballot result will be announced on Friday, 15 December, 20:00 CET, by email to all buyers of one or more tickets. The winner must use the start slot within the next 5 years. This means that you may still jump from the ferry in 2024.
About the project:
All money raised will be used to buy and transport one or more suitable used car(s) for the project. This is a cost-efficient project. The mobile dental unit will be delivered directly to Taras, who is the end user.
No fees, no salaries, no administration costs. Norseman and Flimmer Film will buy the used car(s) and rebuild them into mobile dental units. We will personally drive the vehicle(s) to Ukraine and deliver them to Taras.
There is an expressed need for these services by the Ukrainian side, and Taras, being a dentist, has a network of dentists he can involve should we manage to surpass the cost of a vehicle for him. Any surplus resources from this ballot will be used to buy and equip an additional car.
The production company “Flimmer Film” is currently creating a TV documentary series about Norseman 2023, following a selection of participants. Taras is one of the people being portrayed. The documentary will be released in 2024. Flimmer Film, represented by producer / director Christer Fasmer, are the initiative behind the project and has already managed to get dental equipment and the cars’ interior sponsored by great partners in Norway. The outcome of this ballot will guarantee at least one unit to be delivered to Taras in Ukraine.
