SPORTS ASSOCIATION
The CFK Youth Sports Program addresses three key social problems: ethnic violence, youth unemployment, and public health. CFK brings together male and female youth of different ethnicities to promote community cooperation and development through sports. CFK runs the only all-girls soccer tournament in Kibera, and each CFK soccer team is required to be ethnically diverse. In this way, CFK helps assuage ethnic tension at a grassroots level. Organizational decisions are advised by a committee of male and female youth representatives from Kibera's eleven villages, and sports equipment is provided by the U.S. Soccer Foundation’s Passback Program in partnership Sportsendeavors, Inc. (Hillsborough, NC). Membership in CFK’s Youth Sports Program has grown by over 25% since 2003 and has reached over 5,000 young people in Kibera since 2001.
