Women-Only Gulf Islands Kayak Tour For African Mamas
We’re back with our Adventure of the Heart Gulf Islands kayaking trip (our two in 2021 and 2023 sold out)! OneLove Africa (www.oneloveafrica.org) and Adventuress Sea Kayaking (www.adventuress.ca) team up to support African Mamas in remote Tanzanian villages start their own business. This Gulf Islands paddling weekend (July 5 & 6, 2025) is to support a Social Enterprise in Tanzania and continue on with the 14 years of social development that founder, Suzanne Dane, has worked tirelessly at. This is a unique one-of-a-kind ‘women only’ adventure where, in addition to enjoying kayaking and the beauty of BC nature, you will experience some Tanzanian cuisine, African music and a few cultural treats and storytelling.
Tour price is only $399 (plus gst) and you will receive a tax donation receipt for $175 that goes directly to support the Mamas. You can decide where you would like your donation to go … sponsoring a woman in the entrepreneurship program or the POWERmore program that teaches vocational skills and essential life skills.
Bond with other heartfelt women, celebrate helping our Sisters across the waters to rise above their extreme poverty and have fun, all at the same time. Call 250.755.6702 or email Jan at adventuress@shaw.ca for more information and to be part of this exciting venture! Book early. Limited to 12 women.
