The shutdown of the coronavirus pandemic has caused athletes all around the world to step up and use their voice to help those in need. Olympic gold medalist swimmer Nathan Adrian stated that he was going to “donate a signed Speedo Racing Suit to Athletes for Relief as a way to help out in this challenging time.”

Many other athletes have followed in his footsteps by offering to send in donations to the fund including Olympic gold medalist Ryan Murphy, Elizabeth Beisel, Natalie Coughlin, Breeja Larson and Tom Shields.

2020 has been a year full of setbacks and heartbreak. The year started with the bushfires in Australia that caused many citizens to be left without homes. Swimmers Emma McKeon and her brother David called on all Australians to help the families who lost their homes. 

Nathan Adrian, like other major sport stars Zion Williamson and Kevin Love, is using his voice to help those in need in a time of crisis. The coronavirus pandemic has caused many events to be cancelled including the NCAA championships and many Olympic Trial meets around the world. Canada has already stated its intention to not send a team to the Olympic Games this year because of the growing virus, and many more countries are expected to follow suit this week.
