The Titus Dittmann Foundation


 

Dear reader,

for more than 30 years now, for us everything revolves around skateboarding. From the beginning we recognized the enormous power of the skateboard. Skateboarding knows no frontiers and wars, colour of skin or hate, rich or poor: Skateboarding unites and promotes a sense of identity and purpose especially in the development of young people. From early days we have promoted national and international skateboard-projects. In 2008, when we supported an initiative in Kabul I came to realize once more how ideally instrumental skateboarding is in overcoming differences in areas of conflict. After my first visit to Afghanistan, it was clear to me: I need to stay with it to achieve even more.

In January 2010 I established the Titus Dittmann Foundation. With the skate-aid initiative we utilize the power of skateboarding and our entire potential to bring hope on four wheels to young people, whether in Afghanistan, Africa or with the continuing work in Germany. Please help us, we rely on your support to achieve our aim and bring a share of happiness and security to children who have been deprived of their childhood. I thank you for your interest and hope you can help to promote this project with any contribution you can make.

Sincerely Yours,
Titus Dittmann
