Emma Raducanu has been out of form for most of the season. After enduring struggles on the court, a terrible injury put her out of commission till the US Open. However, the British player is not away from tennis. While she is still recovering from her injury, she is giving lessons on an online platform. The fees of the lessons are priced relatively high, but all the proceeds are being donated to a good cause, as confirmed by the LTA Foundation. 

Raducanu may be continuing her philanthropy even during her injury, but she is out of a sponsor due to her injury. Just as Wimbledon was about to commence, Vodafone found a new brand ambassador in time for the grass slam. 

Emma Raducanu, the philanthropist

The British player announced that she would not be back on the court for a long time, early in May. Due to surgeries on her wrists and left ankle, Raducanu has been out for a long time. However, she is still active in the sport during her recovery period. As she aims to come back for the US Open, Raducanu is teaching tennis.

She used AirWayz, an online platform through which she offers lessons. But lessons from a player of her stature don’t come cheap. She charges $2,000 per lesson and teaches each student individually. But she does not keep the cash with herself. Everything she earns for imparting wisdom, she donates to the LTA Foundation. The Lambda Theta Alpha Foundation confirmed the news itself.
