More than half a million refugees who have arrived in Moldova from Ukraine since the beginning of the war represent an enormous challenge in view of the population of almost 2.6 million and the overall threat situation. The refugee camp in Balti was built by the association "Die AHRche e.V.” and handed over to the local administration. We’re also working closely with the local authorities. Coaches trained by skate-aid started the educational skateboarding workshop program for the refugee kids with the container we set up and trained local coaches.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2023 - skate-aid review 2022

A review of the past year and an outlook on the coming one...

„Feiern und Fördern“ hieß es am 19.11.2022 traditionell wieder bei der Lexware skate-aid-night im Skaters Palace in Münster. Es waren rund 250 geladene Gäste aus ganz Deutschland dem Ruf gefolgt, unter ihnen, wie immer, viele prominente „skate-aid Friends“, wie TV-Arzt und Moderator Doc Esser, Musiker Steffi Stefan, Politiker Ruprecht Polenz, TV-Moderatorin Mara Bergmann, Entertainer Adam Riese, sowie viele weitere bekannte Gesichter.

The skate-aid "Across The Bo(a)rders" container project for socially disadvantaged children started in Cologne-Meschenich.

The first location has now been opened at Kölnberg, one of Cologne's largest social hotspots.

For our project Across The Bo(a)rders in Balti/ Moldova we are looking for a volunteer on short notice from the end of September until the end of October.

My name is Sachin Raj and I’m a skateboarder from Kochi Kerala/India. I have been skateboarding on the streets for 5 years as our city doesn’t have a park yet. With minimal resources, I traveled to India's skateparks and was able to learn the basics of park skating.

The organization of our aid project for Ukrainian kids is in full swing. Yet we’re working together with "Die-AHRche e.V." from Bad Neuenahr - Ahrweiler, which has already built up a tent city with free warm lunch, sanitary facilities, tool rental to flood victims and laundromat etc. during the flood disaster in Ahrweiler. In addition, the association has also already set up a functioning tent city as a reception camp in Moldova at the border to Ukraine.

After working with our local partner "Yuwa for Change" and its president Jagrit Pahadi for several years, we’re now very happy to take this collaboration one step further: Together we have launched "skate-aid Nepal" and realized our latest project under the motto "A skate park for the kids of Butwal". The skate park and the skateboard are the necessary tools to empower the kids in Nepal and to strengthen their intrinsic motivation through our pedagogically accompanied skateboard workshops.

The new skate park in Butwal was finished a few days ago. It’s been a battle against the weather conditions, lack of materials, spicy food and a surgery in between, but finally..bitte das finally hier weg) we finally made it!
