The Mascalzone Latino Sailing School offers sports and recreational activities related to sailing, completely free of charge, for children living in underprivileged neighborhoods of Naples. Our mission is to provide them with opportunities to experience safe and positive environments, helping them look to the future with confidence and awareness. We strongly believe that the sea is a vital resource for our youth, and that their future could unfold by sailing in our Gulf and setting out toward new horizons.
The Mascalzone Latino Sailing School is now a well-established presence in the area, becoming a training ground not only for sailors, but above all for future professionals of the sea. Our students are growing up, and more and more of them are choosing to follow the training path to become sailing instructors. As a result, our activities are expanding, and we are able to offer opportunities for change and empowerment to an increasing number of children.
The most essential tool for a sailing instructor is undoubtedly a support RIB (rigid inflatable boat), which, for safety and efficiency reasons, must be reliable and well-maintained. That’s why we are asking for your support today to help us purchase a VSR 495 RIB, which is perfect for assisting with children’s sailing lessons — helping them live an unforgettable experience and, who knows… maybe even spark a lifelong passion!
