A: To be considered for a football kit donation, your project must meet the following criteria:

1. Football as a Development Tool: Your initiative should leverage football to drive positive change, addressing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) such as education, health, gender equality, and environmental sustainability.
2. Established Organization: We work exclusively with registered charities and NGOs that are part of an established network and demonstrate a track record or potential to provide meaningful services to their local communities.
3. Exclusion of Football Academies: Our focus is on NGOs and charities that use football to inspire and educate, not on supporting football academies.

Important Considerations

Even if your project meets our criteria, a donation is not guaranteed due to logistical constraints and resource availability at the time of your request. If your application is successful but we cannot fulfill it immediately, we will retain your project details and strive to find a solution in the future.

How to Apply

To begin the application process, email us at contactus@kitsfortheworld.org. We will provide a detailed list of required documentation to assess your project’s eligibility.

Key Note

• Registered Charity Requirement: If your organization is not a registered charity or NGO, we regret that your application will not be considered.
• Commitment to Long-Term Impact: Even if immediate support isn’t possible, we are dedicated to exploring ways to collaborate in the future.

We appreciate your understanding as we work to maximize the impact of our donations and support communities that align with our mission of using football as a tool for meaningful change.

A: At Kits for the World, we encourage our partner projects to establish a Kit Lending Library—an innovative way to maximise the impact of donated football kits. This initiative operates on multiple levels, delivering value to both your project and the environment.

1. Boosts Engagement: A Kit Lending Library motivates participants to return regularly to your team or sports-based activities, fostering community spirit and long-term involvement.

2. Promotes Sustainability: By embracing the principles of reuse and recycling, the Kit Lending Library supports our shared commitment to reducing waste and protecting the planet.

3. Tracks Impact: We request our partner projects to share how often their programs reuse these kits. This data not only highlights the environmental benefits of kit reuse but also measures the positive impact on your project.

Implementing the kits for the world Kit Lending Library ensures that donated football kits remain active within your community, extending their lifecycle and amplifying their contribution to sustainability.

A: One of the  requirements we have is the Kit Lending Librarysystem and a commitment to send us a video explaining the objectives of your project and pictures of the kits being put to good use as part of your development through football objectives.

We would also like to receive from your project yearly updates on the progress of your project.

This is important to us as we can then provide all our partners with feedback and demonstrate the impact your organisation is having.

Also we can calculate the impact of how the kits is getting used in terms of numbers of people who pass through your project.

As part of our objectives we ask the NGO/ charity to take part in awareness of the importance SDG 13 play in helping the global warming problem.   

Also kits for the world would like you to send photos of the kits being use at your projects which can be shared on social media to highlight the goals and aim of your NGO’s commitment to social change.
