Konzo Kids still needs your support
“Konso Skatepark was completed last February thanks to the hands of @caribu304, @ethiopiaskate and @sk8likelion. It was an unrepeatable project in which all participants always paddled in the same direction, learning to exercise faith despite the circumstances and to give the best of ourselves without comparing ourselves to the next guy. Nothing could be further from the values that Skateboarding teaches us. Thanks to all of us who participated by doing our bit to make this possible.
Now we are looking for a permanent solution for the Konso Kids, to help in the construction of the elementary school next to the skatepark and to help in the formation of the Konso skate community. Do you want to participate in this mission? Contact us to join forces 💪💚💛❤️
