Football Without Borders Kenya

Football Without Borders Kenya's "Theory of Change" is based on the premise that concrete positive changes in young person's behaviour, activity or situation are dependent on changes of in their perspective and perception of themselves and others. The popularity of sports, particularly football in Africa encourgaes cultural unity, social cohesion (amongst youth of diverse tribal backgrounds) and self empowerment of the youth which can be used as a force for good. Soccer, Boxing, and Martial Arts are effective on instillinig skills of peace and conflict resolution in communities with a high level of crime and violence by equipping participants with self defence skills and most importantly self awareness and self discipline. Our strategy of actino is based on a methodology of the Five FWBK Pillars which work holistically and are integrated within the various projects and activities of the organization: -Education -Health -Gender -Community Development -Agribusiness Programs: -Life On The Ball (Health Education Learning Through Football -Girls Can in Swahili Wasichana Wanaweza (Girl Empowerment) -FWB Academy (Sport Development) -WASH 4 Sport (Water Sanitation Health and Hygiene) -FWB Sports Safehub (Infraestructure) -Volunteer Exchange Program (Sports Tourism) -Football 3 -Life Skills Integrated -Library -Agribusiness (Football 4 Agriculture) Our CBO is aiming to have School, Hospital and rescure center as part of community development owing that we work with vulnerable orphans, youths who are out of school having access to education can give them a second option and finally health through the WASH oriented program FWBK ensures the youth stay physically fit and girls get access to sanitation. Lastly, FWBK (Football Without Borders Kenya) Rescue Center provides a safe haven for orphans and vulnerable children in the community we serve as well as after sshool learning hub for youth an children to develop not only their social skills but education.
