ABOUT us
Fencing for a Purpose Inc. was started in May of 2023 by 3 devoted fencers and high school students: Alex Wolfe from Florida, Nikhil Khanna from Texas, and Theodore Tikhomirov from Illinois. We started this charity with the goal of sharing our passion for fencing. Fencing has opened us up to a lot of great experiences, and we have learned a lot from fencing; after all, fencing is how the 3 of us met.

What we do
So far we have ran 2 camps—one for children with disabilities, and another for small children in Frisco, Texas. These camps were very well received, and all of the camp’s participants were very happy about learning about the sport of fencing. We are currently planning on running 2 more camps. Our next camp will take place in Washington DC. After that, we hope to run a camp in April for children of military families. We also plan on supporting the national fencing team of Ukraine.
