The Cause

Coaching for Hope uses the power of football to connect with some of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged children across Africa and Asia.

They believe that football has the power to change a child's world. Their coaches use football to speak to children in a language they understand. From the mines of Burkina Faso, to the streets of South Africa, football has allowed them to transform children's lives. In ten years their coaches have helped 67,500 children by providing life-saving information on HIV/AIDS prevention, getting them into education and giving them a chance to be children.

It has also allows them to empower girls and women to overcome gender discrimination. Pamela was living in a children's home in Johannesburg when she got involved with football:

"I love football because when I’m playing I forget all the problems that are going on in my life. Football teaches you about life, to be a go-getter and to never give up."

Coaching For Hope are incredibly proud of what their coaches have achieved so far, but there’s still so much more that they can do. In all the countries where they work there are children desperate to play, learn and strive for a brighter future. But they don't have a platform to do so.

To mark our 10th year, Coaching For Hope want to do even more. If they train 400 new coaches they can improve the lives of 18,000 more disadvantaged children.

Help them create these coaches this Christmas by bidding here today.
