Next Generation Stars In Mathare North

Without any doubt talent and interest to play soccer ⚽ amongst children from underserved communities is there. One of the biggest challenge is lack of resources to support every child play in a more organized way that will boost their interest to play soccer to the next levels as a career and hopefully play professionally. 

 General highlight of the gaps; 

1.  Lack of safe playing grounds. 
2. Growing number of kids who want to play soccer but no space to accommodate all.
3. Lack of professional coaches at the grassroots levels. 
4. Lack of sustainable model to provide material and equipment support, for example soccer shoes, balls, bibs etc. 
5. Lack of follow up and support from guardians and parents. 
6. Lack of enough prospects for exposure beyond the community. 
7. Lack of transportation facilitation cost to attend beyond the neighborhood through soccer exchange programs. 
8. Lack of deliberate mentorship and positive role modelling programs And many more! 

 At Wilsen Initiative (Wi) we decided to take a more deliberate effort to support the children in their growth in soccer by providing the best experiences even if we lack the adequate resources and support.

 Our Aim 

We seek to convert these hobbies and passion into more interest of building a career in soccer while teaching the children other vital life skills (off and on the pitch) that will ensure a decent livelihood during and after soccer life. We run an ongoing campaign to mobilize soccer ⚽ resources to support teams in Mathare North U10-U15 for the year 2000. 

 We take this opportunity to thank everyone who has supported our soccer resource mobilization campaign for teams in Mathare North.
