Play.
Inspire.
Empower.

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.

TRANSFORMING LIVES THROUGH PLAY

We want to create a world in which every young Zambian has the opportunity
to reach their full potential and thrive.
