Project Needs and Beneficiaries
There are 5 million homeless in Russia due to the political system. We work in Saint-Petersburg, Novosibirsk, Angarsk, Tiumen’, Arkhangelsk where we offer football training, psychological support, assistance to find a job, training, and education to enable people to change their lives. The national football tournament gains media attention to raise awareness and discuss this issue publically, which is currently taboo.

Why this Project is Important
Potential Long Term Impact
There are 5 million homeless in Russia. This issue is taboo. Football creates a safe platform to raise this issue and improve lives. We will have a national street league and tournament with 30 teams and 5000 homeless people to change their lives.
Project Message
Legally I do not exist I have no rights as a citizen, as a human being. I always dreamed of being a world champion, to bring great joy to my village, to my country. We only think of winning.
