Skateboarding with Eventure in Zambia

Eventure is a Danish organization that undertakes charity projects in developing countries. Their goal is to support and drive sustainable development to improve living conditions for people in underserved communities.

One of their key initiatives, Projekt Zambia, is located near Lake Tanganyika. The project’s facilities include a kindergarten, a library, and a boarding school called Northern Star Academy. Everything offered by Projekt Zambia is free of charge, with all expenses covered by Eventure and its sponsors.

SkatePro’s Partnership with Projekt Zambia

One of Eventure’s dedicated volunteers, Maria, reached out to us as they were setting up a skateboarding school at Projekt Zambia.

There’s no skateboarding without skateboards, and we’re proud to have provided essential gear, including skateboards and merchandise.

Maria reports that word has spread, and kids are now traveling long distances to join the skateboarding school. The footage from the sessions radiates positivity and skateboarding fun, so it's no surprise that it's attracting so much attention.

A project like this one is incredibly encouraging – here’s to many more skateboarding schools across the globe!
