My journey of writing The Island Mysteries began one April day, many years ago, as I waited to board the ferry to Daufuskie Island, South Carolina for the very first time. My son assured me, in a knowing voice, we would be back at that exact spot many more times. He felt it too, the wonder, the pull that only this specific and special placed offered us.

We were captivated.

As a family we rode the island's highs and lows. Through all our vacations and adventures we always left energized, restored, and whole again. Daufuskie is its own magic. There is something immediately compelling about a place that can speak to you with its quiet, that can inspire you with its beauty, that can encourage you to dream by sharing its natural bounty, and that can welcome you with possibility tucked into its mystery. 

In June 2020, I began a quiet campaign to connect individuals who I believed might be able to help the island with some of its large restoration and development projects. From this work I was able to share my passion for Daufuskie and introduce this special place to people all around the world. Several of these new contacts, along with my family, encouraged me in this endeavor we now call The Island Mysteries. From this, Mongin Island was imagined.

My heart is full of gratitude for those who walked with me on this journey, and for you who choose to read these stories. My hope is that you find a place that fills you with joy, peace, and a little island magic.

Cabo Verdeans United (CVU) was founded in 2001 by two sisters, Genie Lomba and Tila Adams. They were born on the island of Brava, Cabo Verde  and emigrated to the United States as teenagers.  Genie and Tila believed it was important to involve themselves in an organization that would create a positive impact on youth growing up in Cabo Verde.  After forming CVU, "Project Sandbox" was launched with the goal of building at least one playground on each of the nine inhabited islands of Cabo Verde.  A team of committed CVU members, volunteers and supporters worked tirelessly to ensure CVU’s success.  To date, we have successfully built playgrounds on each of the islands, thereby achieving our mission.  However, we feel that one playground on each island is just not enough.

CVU does not only build playgrounds, but it transforms communities. We firmly believe that every child in Cabo Verde deserves to have a safe place to play, learn and grow. Please join us in continuing to build smiles on the faces of every child in Cabo Verde.

In 2006, CVU received its official 501(c)3 charitable status retroactive to its inception date of 2001.
