Scottish Football for Rwanda [SCIO]

About

The main activity of the organisation is to organise regular trips to Rwanda (three time per year), during which our volunteers (Scottish youth football coaches) plan and deliver football sessions for children of all ages, ability, gender and background. Fundraising is mainly done by our volunteers, who not only donate a minimum amount to enable each trip to cover their costs, but also additional donations that are then distributed between the organisations we support in Rwanda – schools, ex-street children centres, community groups and other support organisations. The charity’s focus in 2024 and for the forthcoming financial year is to finance the building of a community football pitch in Bisesero.
