Play it Forward is a charity and football club that uses sport to engage disadvantaged young people and bring about positive social change in Zambian communities. Since 2009, our mission has been to empower young Zambians to develop sustainable livelihoods through quality education and health activities so that every young person has the opportunity to reach their full potential and thrive. Play it Forward was developed from a vision that people’s love for football can be used to build opportunities and take control of their own lives. This is achieved by our support, on and off the pitch, ensuring that young people emerge from our programmes with new skills to succeed in school, the workforce and in life.
