As of May 1th you can participate again because the Jump 4 Life action of the Kite 4 Life Foundation then starts again. Where almost € 12.000 in sponsorship money was collected and sailed last year, the goal for 2022 is to at least double this amount. That is why we like to draw attention to the meaningful Jump 4 Life.
Looking back 2021 with Julian
We are in regular contact with Julian. Truly an avid kite surfer who is very involved in our (live) updates on Instagram† The kind of guy who dries his kites in his living room and with whom you would like to be on the water. Nice contact that we also learn from and our blogs become better. Julian competed in Jump 4 Life last year and we jumped at the chance to ask him some questions not knowing that Julian has gone through chemotherapy herself.
For (ex) cancer patients and their loved ones
The Kite 4 Life foundation will use the money raised to teach (former) cancer patients and their loved ones to kitesurf and to bring (back) feelings of freedom, hope and pride into their lives. To achieve this, Kite 4 Life organizes events and facilitates kite lessons in collaboration with various kitesurfing schools in the Netherlands.
Jump 4 Life action
Jump 4 Life is the name of this Kite 4 Life project. The first edition was in 2021 and intended as an annual worldwide kitesurfing event that will be held throughout the month of May. The simple but practical idea is to collect money while kitesurfing by jumping or sailing.
Jump 4 Life participants will have their own page on Jump 4 Life where sponsors can register. Sponsors can indicate how they want to sponsor and what maximum budget can be spent.
Be sponsored per meter and collect money
The intention is simple: jumping and sailing to raise money for the realization of the goals of the Kite 4 Life Foundation. Participants allow themselves to be sponsored 'per meter' by their network. Every meter counts because: the higher the jump, the more often there are jumps, the greater the distances covered and the more participants, the higher the final total amount collected.
Measuring the jumps and/or distances is allowed with your own measuring instruments. In addition to kite surfing and kite foiling, wing foiling is of course also allowed.
