A Project That Turns Dreams Into Reality: Skateistan – CHPO
Swedish brand CHPO combines minimal and iconic Scandinavian design with affordability, offering stylish watches and sunglasses to design enthusiasts. Inspired by skateboarding culture, music, and art, CHPO has become one of Europe’s most talked-about brands in recent years.
One of CHPO’s long-standing collaborators is Skateistan, an international non-profit organization dedicated to educating and empowering children growing up in challenging conditions. Following its schools in Afghanistan and South Africa, Skateistan recently opened a new skate school in Cambodia.
This transformative project in Cambodia will benefit local children, with 53% of the students being girls. Nestled in a lush, green setting, the school features a massive skate park, a library, and activity rooms, providing Cambodian children with a safe and inspiring environment to learn and grow.
Among the key supporters of this project are CHPO and Skateroom, which contribute by donating all proceeds from limited-edition skateboards featuring artwork by Grayson Perry and Andy Warhol.
