VIDEO: Group Returns from Building Playscapes in
Cabo Verde | May 2023
The members of Cabo Verdeans United are back in Connecticut celebrating the success of their latest trip to Cabo Verde, where they built three playgrounds. The latest effort brings the total number of playgrounds they’ve built on the country’s islands to 13.
​
The group, based in Connecticut, raised about $30,000 for the latest construction effort, thanks in large part to Edward Esteves, a Glastonbury retiree who endeavored to do 1,000 pull ups to fundraise for the effort.
