A smile from a kid is packaged sunshine and rainbows.
There were lots of rainbows over the isle of Lanzarote today!
Today we started our @dreamsoftheocean charity event 2018. 14 kids will learn to swim in 14 swim sessions, accompanied by a team of professionals and empowered by the Steem community.
We were planning this for a long time, and today it's become reality.
If you're in doubt about the power of decentralized crowdfunding, watch our today's video!
Our bundles of energy: The participants of our charity event 2018
Actions speak louder than words
We can make plans for the rest of our lives and imagine the world to become a better place, but the only way to change it, is to change it.
There's nothing more contagious than a kid's smile, and that's why we can't get enough of these type of projects.
Today our 14 future swimmers had their first water contact and did pretty well. Every group needs their alpha beings that push the rest to their limits, and so it happened today.
Enjoy the following two minutes of real kids power!
The best is yet to come!
Our future swimmers will be able to enjoy a full month of action now.
Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday - hence, three times per week - they'll be accompanied to the aqua&sport center Lanzarote where they enjoy a full summer's swim training.
Obviously, day one was quite emotional for the whole team! We wouldn't lie if we told you that some of us were shedding a tear watching them having so much fun in the water.

Good to see all those smiles! Lovely pool to swim. Pro about the climate your living I think. Here kids can't always swim outside. From what age do kids start swimming there?
And thumbs up for you @surfermarly great job you're doing here! 😘 👍
