Introducing a collective initiative to work together to benefit football programmes from all over the world, using sport to change people’s lives.

Beginning with 3 countries within Africa (Ghana, Uganda, Kenya) we hope to provide special commissioned footballs for the region, built by a social enterprise in the countries by Alive and Kicking.

Promoting a message of HIV/AIDS awareness, we can have a huge impact by providing much needed equipment.

We are seeking 18 individuals, businesses or partners to help facilitate stage 1 of the programme and provide 20+ footballs to our projects in these countries.

Each paying £100

The cost of the printing screen would be applied for each new logo and varies according to the complexity (ranging from roughly £5-£20). Each printed ball would then be £12 from Kenya and £15 from Ghana. Cost per ball for artwork would therefore be a maximum of £20 x18 = £360 Cost for a batch of 100 balls is £600 (Kenya 25 + Uganda 25) + £750 (Ghana 50) = £1350 (Total = £1710)

All costs are subjective to actual costs once logos are received and once the artwork is done the cost is reduced for the next batch. The balls could either be collected from the stitching centres in Nairobi and Accra, or delivered within Kenya or Ghana (approx £15 for a sack of 25 balls). This leaves a small amount of money £90 left towards administration which we plan to use for advertising and leaflets advertising the opportunity and we hope for the next batch of footballs in a new region or country. We will provide photographs for each partner and use social media and other outlets to promote your participation and a certificate of thanks.
