The UEFA Foundation in conjunction with an organization Shoes4Life has offered a timely donation to Uganda’s Aliguma Foundation.
The donation has an assortment of football boots and several pairs of goalkeepers’ gloves.
This offer is a big boost to the impoverished children under the Aliguma Foundation with projects in Acholi Quarters (Banda) and Masindi.
Ritah Aliguma, the founder and CEO of The Aliguma Foundation is humbled for the donation.
“On behalf of the Aliguma Foundation and the children we serve, we extend our deepest gratitude to Shoes for life and the UEFA Foundation for their generous donation of shoes. Your support has made a significant difference in the lives of many young people in our community. Thanks to your thoughtful gift, our children now have the comfort and protection they need to walk confidently on their journey toward a brighter future. Your commitment to making a positive impact is truly inspiring and brings hope and joy to each child who received a pair. Thank you for making a difference and for walking with us in this journey.” Ritah Aliguma expressed.
Aliguma's first interface with the CEO of Shoes4Life Marketa Haindlova was during a Global Sports Mentorship program organized by the American state department where she promised support that has been eventually delivered.
About Shoes4Life:
The Shoes4Life operates under an endowment fund that was established on the basis of charitable aid projects in developing countries.
These projects were carried out with the aim of providing people, and especially children, in these countries with equipment for their leisure activities. In this case, with the purpose to give them football boots and sports shoes.
Unfortunately, the reality is that millions of children and adults around the world have no shoes at all. Shoes4Life therefore, acts as a facilitator and connector for your old shoes that will never be used again, and an opportunity for someone else to have and use a pair of sports shoes.
Through their activities, Shoes4Life unites the world and provide access to sports opportunities even to people who have not been so lucky in life.
The aim of Shoes4Life projects is to support sports and especially football around the world. In rich countries of Europe and the world, there is a lot of nearly new material available, which will bring many additional benefits if donated.
Shoes4LIfe works with charities, clubs, volunteers and public institutions around the world.
