SKATEISTAN: TO LIVE AND SKATE KABUL

Skateistan: To Live And Skate Kabul is a beautifully shot film that follows the lives of a group of young skateboarders in Afghanistan. Operating against the backdrop of war and bleak prospects, the Skateistan charity project is the world’s first co-educational skateboarding school, where a team of international volunteers work with girls and boys between the ages of 5 and 17, an age group largely untouched by other aid programmes.

Ethioskate

As a result “Love in Action” Ethio Skate project was born in my heart.

The community includes boys and girls between the ages of 6 and 19 in the Intoto area of Addis Ababa. Many of the kids are hawking in the city day by day and are slipping through the cracks in the system.

We hope to grow a sustainable organization that is recognized locally and globally for changing the lives of youth through skateboarding. “
