SURFGIRLS SENEGAL
In Senegal school is not compulsory so it's very common that children are illiterate. Also, families are very large and with parents both working, the children tend to be left to their own devices, resulting in unhealthy behaviour.
Surfkids Shredding Senegal Foundation is helping kids with their educational and sportive development. Kids are educated about a healthy lifestyle by physical training on and off the water with the goal to participate in the National Surf Championships. This keeps them off the streets and gives them a purpose.
Also, school fees and books are covered by the Foundation and school is followed up after school hours during surf practice. This helps the kids to prepare for a better future.
WALLIEN sponsors the foundation by supplying surf gear.
