About The UEFA Foundation for Children 2024

Any organization that supports the UEFA Foundation’s mission and suggests doable steps to assist kids in the areas of access to sports, disabled children, healthy lifestyle, conflict victims, personal development, gender equality, environmental protection, employability, infrastructure and equipment, and strengthening partnerships can submit a project. The foundation supports projects in Europe and outside of Europe.

UEFA Foundation’s primary goals are solidary and development support, rooted in respect for the ethical values that the foundation shares with its partners. Successful projects should also fulfill certain criteria set out by the board of trustees and described in the requirements section below.

In 2015, the foundation charter was signed, legally establishing the UEFA Foundation for Children as a non-profit organization according to Swiss law. It uses its resources to fulfill its mission: to assist kids in conformity with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
