Laura Dekker World Sailing Foundation

MiniCat is introducing the latest project of their brand ambassador Laura Dekker

Making dreams come true

Laura's vision is to take groups of young people, 9-17 years old from a diverse range of backgrounds onboard a ship that she has designed for this purpose and wants to get build. Through the challenge of sailing & land based adventures the youngsters will gain lots of life skills and discover new horizons. A range of longer ocean voyages and shorter coastal trips aboard her purpose build sturdy training vessel will provide a uniquely powerful and extremely effective environment for the personal development of young people from all walks of life.

Although she already has some great supporters and a sponsor in the Deutsche Bank, a lot more help to get this of the ground is needed - would you also like to see this project become reality? Head to her website and see how to support. Any help is welcome in a way of funds, materials for the boat, introductions to the right people - anything.
