Help Us Bring Our Capoeira & Community Center to Life!

Dear Friends, Family, and Supporters,

We are beyond grateful for the generosity and encouragement we have received so far in our journey to open a capoeira school and community center. Thanks to your contributions, we have secured a location—an incredible step toward making this dream a reality!

Now comes the most difficult part: getting the center off the ground and keeping our doors open. Your support will not only help to cover the essential startup costs, but more importantly, with your help, we can offer free to low-cost services to local children, youth, and families from the very beginning!

This project is more than just a Capoeira school—it’s a home for movement, culture, and connection. It’s a space where children and adults alike can grow, express themselves, and build lifelong skills. We’ve planted the seed, and with just a little more help, we can see it blossom into something truly special.

If you’ve already donated, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. If you’re able to contribute again or share this campaign with others, every bit of support brings us closer to opening our doors and making an impact in our community as the Crossroads Culture and Community Center – a safe place for creativity, joy, intergenerational connection, and liberation through education and artful expression.

Let’s build this together!

Much love and gratitude,

Aki and Valerie
