ABOUT Play Soccer
Youth unemployment is a big issue in some parts of Ghana, exacerbated by the country’s expanding wealth disparities. This has resulted in lower food security and increased levels of teenage criminality in certain areas.
Play Soccer Ghana assists children and young people in 11 different places in Ghana each year through its varied programmes. It also serves as a social clinic for the parents of the participants, instructing them on how to best assist their children.
Play Soccer also offers worldwide leadership for the annual Global Peace Games for Children and Youth, as well as various events and communication exchanges to promote cultural understanding, global friendship, and gender equality.
As well as building physical fitness and well-being, young people learn values and skills like fair play, gender equality and peaceful conflict resolution.
Each session encourages children to put these new skills and knowledge into practice on the playing field and in their daily lives.
Play Soccer Ghana supports children and young adults annually through its various programmes in 11 different locations in Ghana. It also operates as a social clinic for the participants’ parents, educating them on how to best support their children.

“When I was the Director of the FIFA football for hope centre in cape coast, Ghana. our partnership with kits for the world at that time was very timely.
We were facing challenges with how to kit our newly created program called the street league.
The street league was a program that targeted 1200 boys and girls from the street. it was an opportunity to give life-skills to these vulnerable group as they play their favourite game, football.kits for the world came to our rescue and the rest was history. i am very grateful to kits for the world for that kind gesture which went a long way to make the program a success.
AYEKOO kits for the world as we say in Ghana

Kits for the World sdg 13 Commitment to offset a kit donation


Biodiversity
Wherever trees are established, wildlife and other plants are sure to follow, ensuring a healthier ecosystem. Trees provide shelter and food for a variety of birds and small animals. Attracting pollinators which in turn help with vegetable and plant growth used not just for food but also for medicines.

Climate
Trees are sometimes called the lungs of the Earth because they absorb pollutants through their leaves. Trees improve water quality, and reduce flooding and erosion.
Trees temper climate. Trees lower air temperatures and humidity; they can also influence wind speed. Evaporation of water from trees, or transpiration, has a cooling effect.

Kits for the World
Kits for the World is committed to help fighting the issue of climate change. To this end not only do we reuse and recycle football kits. We also look for the most sustainable way to transport football kits to our partner projects.
To offset this transaction we also are also looking to partner with charities that can help re-green planting trees and forests which play a crucial role in combating climate change and loss of biodiversity.
Kits for the world are also looking to partner with companies of electric vans to help assist in local collections of kit donations.
