‘Football For Good’ is a worldwide campaign initiative formally and officially endorsed by The Commonwealth, originally devised by Keith Mabbutt (Founder, Street Soccer Foundation).
The Football For Good project seeks to support and empower young people all across the world.
Join us in exploring how the world’s most beloved sport creates positive social impact, builds communities, and inspires change across the globe.
As the Global project initiative of the Street Soccer Foundation, we invite partnerships from across the world to come together to showcase how the no.1 sport is used as a true force for good.
The Commonwealth comprises 56 independent countries from across Africa, Asia, the Americas, Europe and the Pacific. With 2.5 billion citizens living in Commonwealth countries, more than 60% are aged under 29, representing more than 1.5 billion young people.
The Street Soccer Foundation is very proud to be at the heart of ‘Football For Good’ and with the endorsement from The Commonwealth in its collective support of the Year of Youth and young people worldwide, the Football For Good movement invites global partnerships from across all 56 nations to come together to showcase how the global no.1 sport is being used as a true force for good.
