One World Futbol Project is a new partner that has donated 5,500 One World Futbols to be distributed in the Katanga Province. One World Futbol Project makes, sells and disseminates the One World Futbol, a nearly indestructible ball that never needs a pump and never goes flat, even when punctured. Malaika will be distributing this generous gift to the different villages, NGOs, orphanages, and communities that work with youth in the area, providing them with an opportunity to gather and play.
We would like to thank Sandra Cress, the Director of One World Futbol, for attending the opening ceremony of our Kalebuka Football for Hope Center.
Sandra said,
“The One World Futbol Project has been blessed to have Chevrolet as our Founding Sponsor. Through this partnership, Chevrolet is supporting our donation of our nearly-indestructible balls around the world. It was thrilling to contribute to the incredible work of Malaika in Kalebuka with a donation of 5400 soccer balls. Malaika is a reputable and impactful partner, changing the lives of children in Kalebuka and beyond. Through the vision of Malaika, these balls will help children throughout Katanga region have sustainable access to play. At the launch of the FIFA Football for Hope Center, I was deeply moved to witness the hope and aspirations of the girls in the Malaika School. Every child should have the same opportunities to learn that Malaika has given these children. We are grateful to be a part of this powerful movement, and I expect that this is just the beginning of our relationship with Malaika and with Congo. Noëlla is inspirational, and her team tireless!”
