Every Child Deserves a Chance to Play.
Football is more than a game. For many children around the world, it is the one thing that gives them joy, identity, and hope. Since 2015, Alliance FC has been collecting and donating football gear to underprivileged kids across the world — because no child should be kept off the pitch.
Where It Started.
It started in 2015 with a few kits, balls, and boots collected from players at Alliance Football Club. No big plan — just a simple belief that the gear sitting in our cupboards could change a child's day somewhere else in the world.
Over the first ten years, we collected everything football-related — backpacks, shin guards, jerseys, balls, and boots. Thousands of items donated by players, parents, and the Alliance community.
In 2024, we made a deliberate decision: boots only. Because after ten years of doing this, we learned that the one thing most underprivileged kids have never owned is a pair of football boots. Many have only ever played barefoot or in worn-out shoes.
"When a child laces up a pair of boots for the first time, they don't just play the game — they feel like they belong to something bigger."
Our Focus: Football Boots.
For many of the kids we support, owning a pair of football boots is a dream — one they've never had the chance to fulfil. That's why from 2024 onwards, our mission is simple: get football boots to every child who needs them.
New or gently used. Any size. Any brand. Every pair will go directly to a child who has never owned one. The response from our players, families, and community has been incredible — but we are always collecting.
"If you have boots sitting in your cupboard that no longer fit or get used, they belong on a pitch somewhere in the world."
