Skateboarding in Afghanistan


I thought many of you might be interested in reading this New York Times article about Oliver Percovich, an Australian who is trying to build a skateboarding school for kids in Afghanistan. Make sure to watch the accompanying video on the NY Times site if you can. So far, Percovich has raised about $120,000 toward the school, a.k.a. Skateistan. You can read about how you can make a donation here, and his website is at skateistan.org.
