Homeless football

Their life has been always in danger. AIDS, drugs, prostitution, criminal – that is the future of street children in most cases. But these children are ready to change their lives if we help them. For instance, trainings in football club for all the volunteered. For this work they need support.

The life of street children is constantly under threat. Infection with HIV, other infectious diseases, drug overdose ... and not only this. It is very diffcult to divert such children from drugs and crime because of the absence of other interesting activities for them.

The aim of this project is rehabilitation of street youth and positive impact on them through sports.

The main reason for young people to leave home is the family problems. Another reason for running away is poverty, lost of accommodation, death of father or mother. However, teenagers who appeared to be in a difficult situation willingly change their lifestyle if they are offered something more interesting. They would love to play football, travel, and attend gyms. But - where? How? Today, almost all the sport facilities are destroyed, sport education traditions disappeared. Children from poor families can’t afford to attend those modern sport clubs.

The idea of returning people to normal life due to sport is successfully used in the most European countries. And the passion for such popular game as football incredibly helps to wipe social boundaries. Therefore Charity Fund "WayHome" created a football club for these children, where everyone who wishes can train.

For the proper work of the club and regular trainings a lot of money is needed. In addition, young sportsmen are expecting for the Championship, to show everything they have learnt. Now the Foundation is actively raising money for the football uniform, equipment, salary for the coach and competition arrangements.

Kindly ask you to help these children to play football but not the daily game of survival.
