Workshop Tour for children in Dutch refugee camps

This May holiday we have send our dance and sports coaches to 30 refugee camps and emergency shelters in The Netherlands. 307 Children have joined our basketball, dance, boxing and street gym workshops.

With our activities we have reached out to 147 Girls and 160 boys. Our dance workshops were the most popular this time, the previous holiday number one was boxing. 

We like to thank you for your support to our project.

It really does make a difference for child refugees if they have an activity during the day or nothing happens.

This year our coaches are 10 years active in the Dutch refugee camps and we will keep on doing that.

New year, new plans to create more impact for child refugees in The Netherlands. We will keep on giving dance and sports workshops that have a positive impact on trauma relief. But this year we will also offer two types of events in the refugee camps: Block Parties with dance, music and food and Champions Days with boxing, bootcamp and basketball. Our team of coaches is growing and we will aim to offer our activities. We like to focus on at least 40 / 45 refugee camps and emergency shelters in different parts of The Netherlands. On behalf of the child refugees, our dance and sports coaches and our team, thank you so much for supporting this project!
