The sports equipment, which includes boots, shirts, balls and other items, was delivered to a local organisation that works with children in vulnerable situations. The children received the equipment with big smiles on their faces, and expressed their joy at being able to play sports.
‘We are very happy to be able to help children in Senegal to have opportunities and build dreams,’ said the director of the Tximist Foundation, Aintzane Encinas. ‘Sport is a fundamental tool for personal and social development, and can help children overcome the barriers of social exclusion’.
The Tximist Foundation has been sending sports equipment to Senegal and other countries around the world for years. This initiative is part of its commitment to promoting gender equality and social development through sport.
