Our team is made up of of involved board members and enthusiastic volunteers in the Netherlands, Portugal and Cape Verde. We are also in continuous contact with and receiving much support from Cape Verdean migrant organisations in Luxembourg, Italy, Portugal and the United States. The board of directors of the Dany Foundation consists of three persons:

Grace Beatriz: President

Writer, living in Haarlem, Holland. Her contact with Dany Estevão ultimately led to the birth of the Dany Foudation. Ever since she started to promote her book ” Saudades do Dany” in april 2005, she has been working for the cause of the Cape Verdean patients in Portugal. The media attention that she received has contributed a great deal to a wider understanding of the the miserable conditions in which Cape Verdean patients have to live in Portugal.
