God's work

This ongoing project embodies the revival of ancestral connections to water for Black and Brown youth, who have endured the disruption of these ties throughout history. It emphasizes how empowerment and the accessibility to water through previously restricted sports are central to restoring these ancient bonds.
Nonprofit organizations are playing a pivotal role in facilitating this transformation by providing access to activities such as surfing and swimming, and more, all underpinned by positive leadership principles.
The dedication to this mission, akin to "God's work," is a guiding force, echoing in the hearts of those committed to this cause.

La mission de Dieu

Ce projet en cours incarne la résurrection des liens ancestraux avec l'eau pour les jeunes Noirs et Métis, qui ont enduré la rupture de ces liens tout au long de l'histoire. Il met l'accent sur l'autonomisation et l'accessibilité à l'eau grace à des  sports autrefois restreints, éléments centraux de la restauration de ces liens ancestraux.
Des organisations à but non lucratif jouent un rôle essentiel en facilitant cette transformation en offrant un accès à des activités telles que le surf et la natation, le tout soutenu par des principes de leadership positif.
La dévotion à cette mission, semblable à "l'œuvre de Dieu", est une force motrice, résonnant dans le cœur de ceux qui se consacrent à cette cause.
