  • About Us

    A different approach to development aid: the social importance of sport in a country with a youth unemployment rate of nearly 90%.

    Whereas in Europe or America sport is often taken for granted, it has a much greater meaning for Tanzanians. Often it is their only hobby. The opportunity to do sports in a club provides stability in life and helps the youth to forget about their daily problems. However, most of them don’t have the chance to train regularly in a team due to the lack of playing fields and organized clubs. This is why we support the systematic development of the most popular team sports in the country: Football, Volleyball, Basketball and Netball.
