COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) – The United States Olympic and Paralympic Foundation received an $800,000 grant that will go toward supporting USA Boxing ahead of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.

The USOPF states the two-year grant from the Daniels Fund will fund performance enhancement for USA Boxing’s elite teams, coaching education programming, and greater access to camps and competitions for USA Boxing’s youth and junior-level athletes.
