Empowering Youth Through Sports: A Success Story from Kalonga School
At Our Aim Foundation, in partnership with the UEFA Foundation for Children, we are dedicated to fostering youth development, discipline, and community engagement through structured sports programs. Our mission continues to impact communities in Mchinji District, Malawi, by providing football training, netball coaching, school-based sports activities, community outreach, and competitive tournaments. Through these efforts, we create opportunities for youth to build strong, confident futures.
A Success Story from Kalonga School
Donnex Mponda, a Standard 7 student at Kalonga School, is one of the many youths who have benefited from our sports programs for youth. “I would like to sincerely thank Our Aim Foundation and the UEFA Foundation for Children for giving us the opportunity to play fun games and football,” says Donnex. “These activities make us happy and help us grow strong and confident.”
Donnex’s story is a powerful example of how sports programs for youth contribute to personal growth. Our collaboration with the UEFA Foundation has gone beyond football coaching. It’s about nurturing the whole child—physically, mentally, and emotionally. In 2025 alone, we successfully trained over 850 youth in football, netball, and other community-based sports. This continues to be a beacon of hope despite challenges such as adverse weather and school exams.
However, Donnex, and others like him, still face challenges. “We truly appreciate your support, and we kindly ask if you could assist us with sports materials for youth here at Kalonga Village so that we can continue learning, playing, and developing our talents,” he adds.
