Call For Support Next Generation Stars U10 - U15 Teams in Mathare North Community.

General Overview 

We have more that 30+ teams in Mathare North ward. All of the junior teams and senior teams in Mathare North Community, particularly those in the Mathare ward, have access to the same football field, which is located in Ruaraka consistency which is one of the challenges we have in accomodating the raising number of teams and players. 

Interestingly, this field is located inside Drive inn Primary School and is not for the general public, however it has hosted various football events and produced many star players in our community. Our goal as Wilsen initiative (Wi) is to help both boys and girls between the ages of 10 and 15 acquire the most urgent requirement for the game (balls, uniforms, training bibs etc) through Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), but we also encourage Individual Social Responsibility (ISR), which is a new way of thinking about problem-solving starting from the perspective of an individual's effort, the change that adheres to the Start With Me philosophy. 

Generally, sports has the capacity to transform our society for the better, if we actively and purposefully involve the children and youth with the utmost professionalism, provide appropriate resources, quality training, exposure, and support. 

After everything is said and done, we will save a lot of youth from poverty, drug abuse, and idleness, to name a few things." - Wilson Masaka The Problem We Seek To Solve We want to provide every child (boys and girls) that plays football in Mathare North with a unique and improved experience that will guarantee they play safely, learn, connect, and play with honour.

 "Some dreams come with expiry date attached. I am aware that I can no longer pursue my dream of being a professional football player, but I will do everything in my power to help the next generation by participating in the Wilsen Initiative, or the "Wi-effect." - Wilson Masaka 

Football For Life! 

 I've learned new skills, made new friends, and traveled to numerous locations thanks to football, to name a few things. Here are some videos highlighting past community activation under Wilsen initiative (Wi) - the Wi effect. Wilsen initiative (Wi) was founded based on the basis of my personal story and I want to Do More for my community especially on resource mobilization for U10 - U15 teams

Football is My Lifestyle, ICT is My Career and Empowering Young People is My Calling.

Sad Reality! 

 " If you believe that honouring oneself is improper, keep in mind that it may be many years before you are honoured, and the unfortunate and sad fact is that it might occur shortly before you are buried." - Wilson Masaka #LifeSeries Do More / Be More / Be Different

Today, I want to give myself a pat on the back for the efforts I've made to see possibility where there had previously only been labeled impossibility, for allowing myself to learn despite obvious signs of failure, and for moving forward when everything seemed lost. 

Being my own number one supporter has worked wonders in my life to tackle any life challenge before seeking for support from friends and family. 

Thoughtful...

It can take time, or even years, before you receive true feedback because not all cheering squads are real; you have to cut through the noise to distinguish between the real and fake voices. 

Examine your life's past to identify the moments where you were content and the factors that contributed to your success and use it as a pivotal to Do More and Be More. 

 All said and done, I want to thank everyone who has supported me along the way to achieve my set goals. I'm not yet done, and I believe there is still more I can do for self, family and my community.

Some Dreams Comes With Expiry Date Attached.

I am aware that I can no longer pursue my dream of being a professional football player, but I will do everything in my power to help the next generation achieve MORE through the Wilsen Initiative (Wi), or the "Wi-effect."
