GRAND DAKAR
2024
FIRST EDITION
The NDAW A. journey returned to its roots in Amitié for a deeply personal program in partnership with Coach Lamine, the mentor who shaped Colin’s early basketball career. Now leading the Dream Stars Elite club, Coach Lamine joined forces with NDAW A. to host an impactful camp centered on the pillars of education, discipline, and the relentless pursuit of goals.
This collaboration provided a unique platform for young athletes to hear firsthand how the values learned on the court translate into academic and life success. To ensure these athletes have the tools to continue their journey, NDAW A. donated 20 pairs of shoes and over 50 shirts. This gesture served as a heartfelt expression of gratitude to a community that has provided so much support over the years. By investing in Dream Stars Elite, we are not just giving back—we are honoring the mentorship that makes great athletes possible.
2025
SECOND EDITION
In a powerful collaboration with Dream Stars Elite, NDAW A. joined forces with Coach Lamine to lead an intensive program focused on the holistic development of young talent. The camp transformed the court into a classroom, blending high-level warmups and technical skill work with competitive games and team-building exercises. Every drill was designed to strike a balance between rigorous discipline and the pure joy of the game.
To ensure that every athlete could participate with the proper equipment, NDAW A. distributed over 30 pairs of shoes and 70+ pieces of athletic gear. By removing the barrier of access to quality resources, we allowed the players to focus entirely on their growth and the lessons of the day. This partnership was a tribute to the coaching and community support that forms the backbone of athletic success, aimed at inspiring a new generation to recognize and pursue their own limitless potential.
SUPPORTING PULSE AFRICA
In September 2025, we partnered with Pulse Africa to support an all-girls sports camp in Keur Jarraf, led by Fatou Kiné Ndiaye. Over the course of 10 days, more than 60 girls participated in technical workshops, games, and educational sessions that combined sports with mentorship and encouragement to pursue their studies. NDAW A. contributed by donating 30+ pairs of shoes and helping fund the program, ensuring every participant had the resources and environment to grow in confidence and autonomy. This collaboration emphasized the powerful connection between education and sport, empowering a new generation of young women in Senegal.
