Football For Hope

My dream goal is to connect each child in Mathare North with a football shoe and a ball; aside from my education, football has shaped who I am today.

As a child, I played football barefoot, so I understand what it's like to have a great desire to play for professional local and international clubs but without the required support and equipment. Unfortunately, some of the difficult situations I've had over the previous 30 years are common among children and youth aspiring to reach their goals, particularly in rural and urban informal settings.

At the Wilsen Initiative (Wi), one of our goals is to teach young people on and off the field skills that will enable them live a more responsible lifestyle and, if feasible, create a professional career. All of this cannot be accomplished if we do not have appropriate resources to help children and youth play safely and with dignity.

CALL FOR SUPPORT

You can join me on this lifelong adventure to assist young football talent and their teams acquire the necessary resources for the game.
