Esport Solidari Internacional is a Private Foundation formed by people who firmly believe in the importance of sport in helping children and young people living in precarious and marginal situations.
Sport helps us to relate, to learn about diversity, to know our own abilities and limitations, and to strive to achieve a common goal. That is why at Esport Solidari Internacional we work both in developing countries as well as in marginal areas of developed countries.
Our values:
- Respect for the person, their convictions and values regardless of their origin.
- Sport as an integrative activity and a tool for breaking boundaries.
- The proximity and collaboration between people regardless of the miles between us.
- Self-improvement, motivation and effort for the development of youth and prosperity.
Our actions focus on:
- The donation of financial scholarships for sports monitors, so that they can train young people at risk of social exclusion in the practice of sport while monitoring their school performance.
- The construction and maintenance of quality sports facilities wherever they are needed, here or at the other end of the world.
- The donation of sports equipment.
- Sports scholarships for children and young people who play sports and live in precarious and marginal situations.
Over the years, we have absorbed two small NGOs that have become part of ESI: Raquetes sense fronteres i Petanca Solidària.
