Overview

After Karim left his home country due to violence, he went to a new country called Rwanda and brought the sport of rollerblading with him. In a place where activities do not come easily due to widespread poverty, he gave encouragement to the children and young adults to follow his path and take lessons from him. Karim gave back to the community by giving equipment to kids who could not afford it and even sent some of the kids to school. —Joseph Galbo, age 15
