We work with schools and orphanages in Africa with the goal of helping under-served children break out of the cycle of poverty so they can lead successful and prosperous lives. Our goal We've found that the best way to achieve our goal is through a two-part strategy that can best be described as what we do ON THE FIELD and OFF THE FIELD of play. Our strategy We use soccer clinics to educate children about life through sport. We relate soccer to real life situations, through exercises and drills in which we underline the importance of good decision making, developing individual skills and working together as a team. On the field We focus on improving the everyday living conditions of the children, by providing access to clean water, renewable energy, medical aid, school supplies, job skills training, construction of sustainable school farms, and renovation of school and orphanage buildings Off the field Help us lift children out of poverty Join our team It Starts With Soccer

Our Goal

We work with schools in rural Africa with the goal of helping under-served children break out of the cycle of poverty so they can lead success and prosperous lives.

Our Strategy

We've found that the best way to achieve our goal is through a two-part strategy that can best be described as what we do "On the field" and "Off the field" of play.
On the field

On the field

On the field of play, we use soccer clinics to educate children about life through sport by relating soccer to real life situations, through exercises and drills in which we underline the importance of good decision making, developing individual skills and working together as a team.

Off the Field Icon

Off the field

Off the field of play, we focus on tangibly improving aspects of the everyday living conditions of the children, including providing access to clean water, nutrition, school supplies, agriculture education, solar energy, job skills training, and new or refurbished school buildings.
