Project

Huanchaco is a fisherman`s village in the North of Peru near Trujillo. Especially in summertime a lot tourists visit this place to go surfing or enjoy the easy-going way of life here. Huanchaco seems at first sight quite wealthy, but a little bit behind it things look different. There is a small village called Tablazo where the people live under extremely poor conditions. Food is scarse, children sleep on the streets, the housing is poor and there is very little to occupy the children in their free time. Huanchaco inhabits quite a few Skater and every now and then you can also see some travellers skating around. Our plan is to build a mini-halfpipe up there in order to give the local children somewhere to play and to encourage the peoplefrom Huanchaco to visit the area and see the conditions for themselves.
