The Africell Impact Foundation and the Clube Náutico da Ilha de Luanda are proud to unfurl ‘Navegando Futuros’ (Sailing Futures), a programme getting more young Angolans to dip their toes into the sport of sailing.

Angola is a coastal nation with enormous sailing potential. The partnership between Africell and Luanda’s most prestigious boat club includes the sponsorship of boats, as well as sailing lessons for underprivileged young people who would otherwise not be able to participate in the sport.

Next time you are walking along Luanda’s elegant marginal, look out for the fleet of Africell Impact Foundation dinghies, distinguished by their vibrant purple sails, and see if you can spot a new generation of Angolan sailors having fun and developing their nautical skills!
