Story

This Summer, we need you to join the team.

Goals for Good is a brand new project from The Salvation Army uniting football to help end homelessness. More and more families and individuals are being dragged into rough sleeping, sofa surfing and unsafe emergency housing. We need you to join the campaign and fight back. Whatever your team, whatever your kit or colours, whatever your position, however you watch, play, listen or chat about football, we're all in this together. It won’t be easy but this this is our chance to help end homelessness and put the game to bed. This is football united against homelessness. This is Goals for Good.

So sign up your school, your workplace, your church, your neighbourhood and your mates and let’s help end homelessness together.

Here’s how to get involved:

• Host a Watchparty: A Goals for Good Watchparty is a social gathering where people come together to watch a football match in aid of The Salvation Army and their work ending homelessness across the UK. Gather your friends, family, church, sports team or community group and watch the game together. Each guest is invited to make a donation towards Goals to Good.

• Host a Wear Your Kit to ____ Day: Wear Your Kit to ____ Day is an initiative that encourages people to wear their favourite football kit, scarf or fancy dress to school, work, church or other settings. Each participation is invited to make a donation towards Goals to Good.

Goals for Good is all about helping churches, schools, workplaces, families, children and young people use football to make a different to their neighbourhoods and wider communities. Every penny that you donate through Goals for Good helps to end homelessness and other social injustices.
