PROJECT AFRICA- FOOTBALL CONNECTS 1158KM RUN

Project Africa's founder Max will be running to every Premier League stadium in England to raise money for their next 4 football pitches. This run will start at St James Park in Newcastle and will see Max run to every Premier League stadium in England until he gets to West Ham's Olympic Stadium in East London. This will over 1150km's and will take around 35 days. He will be assisted by Co-Founder Leendert, who will be Head of Logistics whilst also filming every step to give you all an insight into the highs and lows of the run.

The money raised will facilitate the next pitches including the next two in Kenya. These pitches will be made for Vijana Amani Pamoja (VAP) who use football to empower young people to make positive and healthy decisions in areas such as HIV and female empowerment. They do so much for the local communities, giving young people the chance to learn, grow and turn into the best versions of themselves. https://www.instagram.com/vap_kenya/?hl=en

The second charity we will be building a pitch for is Football Without Borders. The organisation

empowers youth through sports impacting education, physical wellness, nurturing talents and most importantly teaching life skills. From a very young age George envisioned a community whose youth were free from HIV/AIDS, poverty, unemployment, gender-based violence, early marriages, drugs and many other vices that impact youth in Kenya.

Both organisations won us over with their projects, how they affect the communities and their undeniable. passion to change lives. If we can supply them both a pitch that they can use to better themselves and the communities aorund them, then our job is done.

For all this to happen, we need your help. We have set a very high target, which will help more than just these two organisations, and will put us in good stead to help even more charities like these two. Our dream is to have built pitches all over Africa, giving so many charities and organisations a chance to thrive and better themselves and the communities around them.

Us at Project Africa thank you for every donation and hope that you follow us not only on this journey through England but our journey throughout Africa.
