We are challenging our community to Be “On The Ball” and help BIS raise money for Africa On The Ball, who are changing lives through football in communities.

BIS as a Team are aiming to "collect" the 11,000 km this year between Munich and Lusaka by walking, biking, swimming, running, playing sports together or "Being On The Ball" with entrepreneurial fundraisers, or simply donating.

All monies go directly to Africa On The Ball (AOTB), a registered Scottish charity, who use football to promote positive change. As part of the AOTB community football club teams, they help empower the young and the old learn new things and give something back to their community through outreach programmes. These include providing school fees, academic & skills scholarships, solar powered water kiosks, gender equality, first aid training, HIV support and enterprise projects to help sustainably change lives.

We hope to support at least another 10 academic/skills annual scholarships @€250 each, and aim to support the building of a new clubhouse with teaching rooms and a library.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
