The Homeless World Cup has launched a brand new initiative, Football Box, a football coaching education programme with equipment that can travel to the far corners of the globe to deliver the benefits of football to homeless people in the most deprived environments in our world.

One Football Box delivers football coaching education with equipment for five homeless people to work with 100 homeless players in their community. It costs just £500 to fund one football box that can reach 100 homeless people with the benefits of football. So a £5 donation can make a world of difference to one homeless person. We'd love your help to fund a Football Box here.

The Football Box coaching education programme was tried and tested in India with Homeless World Cup partners, Slum Soccer in 2009.  It provided the opportunity for homeless people to adopt a healthy training routine, become part of a team, acquire coaching skills  and regain their self-respect from which to build the foundations of a new life. Players are encouraged to use this experience as a springboard to become; coaches, referees,  trainers and leaders in their community.

Thank you for your support to fund a football box. Just £5 can make all the difference to one homeless person.
