Giving Back
It must be noted that Nadia isn’t alone on many of her projects, her husband Bart Conner stands alongside her and is fully active as well. The couple works as volunteers for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. MDA provides research and services for those affected by neuromuscular disease.
Nadia Comăneci And Caitlyn Jenner
Even though both Caitlyn Jenner and Nadia found fame during the Olympic Games in Montreal in 1976, 2016 was the first time that the two gold medalists actually met.
