Children of Gambia

Welcome to Children of Gambia — the story of a growing community of children and young people in The Gambia, and the people working alongside them to build a brighter future.

What began with a single donated football has grown into a long-term project supporting around 100 children and young people through football, education, nutrition and opportunities for the future.

At the heart of the project is SamTom FC Academy, where football provides more than just a game. It gives children a safe place to belong, learn teamwork and discipline, build confidence and pursue their dreams.
