About the Fund
The Rusty Kanokogi Fund for the Advancement of U.S. Judo was established
in 2009 to provide direct financial assistance to aspiring judo athletes
with successful competitive records who have the potential to achieve even
higher performance levels and rankings. Requests for assistance are
considered for coaching, specialized training and/or travel. An individual may
request up to $5,000. The Fund was established by Richard Ader and is
replenished through earnings on the endowment and donations.
