Soares’s crowdfunding effort is co-sponsored with several international partners from the tourism industry, such as Dada's Animations (tourism agency in São Vicente), O Ritmo (tourism agency in Switzerland), Rabasa (musical group from the Netherlands), and Fundação Cabo Verde (based in Switzerland).
Soares is also volunteering with health centers in São Vicente to inform the local population about hygiene measures that help prevent COVID-19. To see and read more about Alvano Soares and his amazing work, check out the post on U.S. Embassy Praia, Cabo Verde’s Facebook page.
