The Homeless World Cup Foundation is a unique, pioneering charity which uses football to inspire homeless people to change their own lives. We support grassroots football programmes and social enterprise development through a network of more than 70 Street Football Partners. We provide a focus for—and celebration of—their year-round activity by organising and delivering an annual, world-class, international football tournament for national teams of men and women who are homeless. Since 2001, we have been committed to “changing the lives of people who are homeless through football.” Today, the work of our movement is varied and extensive - from building awareness about homelessness and raising funds for our activities, to organising our annual Homeless World Cup tournament. The Homeless World Cup Tournament is our flagship event. Delivered by the Homeless World Cup Foundation in co-ordination with a Local Organising Committee, the event brings together teams from all around the world for an inspiring week-long festival of football. Participating teams are managed by our Street Football Partners and are formed by men and women all of whom have experienced homelessness.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page, in favour of the forthcoming event for the Homeless World Cup Foundation, at Poznan, Poland, in August 2013.

We strive in becoming committed members of this charitable cause which aims to combat the issue of homelessness around the world and improve the many lives of unsheltered people. In raising the awareness of this global problem that affects every nation, the foundation organises an annual international football tournament and we are going to play a part of this year's tournament in Poland. 

We are very appreciative of any donations that people are willing to contribute towards this amazing cause, as well as the support conducted from the various well-known football cubs within the south of England that we intend on visiting during our 2 week walk, which starts on monday 24th june.

Please dig deep and donate now!
