Skateistan
Oliver Percovich is making a skate park and school for all those kids in Afghanistan. It will be a great opportunity for kids to forget about the horrible war scene around them. 
“It gives me courage, and once I start skating, I completely forget about my fears,” says 9 year old Maro. Percovich intends to teach not only Skateboarding at his school but English and Computer. “Afghan kids are the same as kids all over the world,” Percovich said. “They just haven’t been given the same opportunities. They need a positive environment to do positive things for Afghanistan and for themselves.”
