Santa Giustina in Colle (PD). Over 2000 children attended the gymnasium where Clarence Seedorf presented his Champions for Children Foundation. During the meeting of the 9th february 2009 he explained the importance of sport in the growth of an individual and how this could be even more important for those children who don’t have the same chances we have.
Many children in the world live in vulnerable areas; every day they have to face poverty, crime and marginalization. It is for them that all of us have to commit.
Clarence underlined the importance of sport to the children attended, explaining them about the Champions Playground which is the most important project of the Foundation where education through sport is its focus.
This project will start in South Africa within 2010 and a Playground will be built in Cape Town.
Thanks to this event and to the people who attended the meeting, the foundation raised up 23.000 Euro.
The event in Santa Giustina in Colle saw also the participation of the volley Champion Alberto Cisolla, who is one of the Ambassadors of Champions for Children.
