Reaching change in Cape Verde

KIMOV has been making a difference in the lives of many ambitious and determined girls. It is time to give them surf equipment of the quality and quantity they deserve.

KIMOV has been making a difference in the lives of many ambitious and determined girls. It is time to give them surf equipment of the quality and quantity they deserve.

Right now, our biggest project is Winds of Change . In this project, we offer free surf and kitesurf lessons to our beneficiaries, where they learn the importance of resilience and consistency, and also get to enjoy the sea around their island, some of them for the first time.

With the help of wonderful benefactors and donors, we were able to gather various materials that will improve the experience of our water sports classes, from boards to wetsuits, among other things.

The current challenge? Getting all this material to Cape Verde.

This fundraising campaign means a very significant improvement in the provision of our services, will increase the safety and autonomy of our classes, and will allow us to reach more girls who are passionate about the sea and about expanding their horizons.

We are committed to using this valuable assistance by choosing the most environmentally friendly and efficient means of transport possible.

Every gesture counts. Thank you! 🌟
