In the heart of commune 18, one of the areas most hit by vulnerability in Cali, has just opened its doors that goes far beyond teaching to kick a ball. This is the new Sociode Sports School promoted by the Real Madrid Foundation, in alliance with CAF – Development Bank of Latin America and the Caribbean, the Concivic Foundation and the Club Campestre de Cali Foundation.
This project aims to offer 150 girls and boys in the area not only soccer classes, but also a safe space to grow, learn and dream. The proposal is clear: to use sport as a tool to form in values such as respect, discipline, solidarity and teamwork. Because here, the goal is not just scoring goals, but transforming lives.
The school is part of an international program that already reaches more than 40,000 minors at risk in more than 90 countries, consolidating itself as a world reference for social inclusion through sport. In Cali, this initiative is reinforced with comprehensive accompaniment: psychosocial support, educational activities in values, nutritional orientation and environmental training. Everything designed to strengthen both the physical and emotional well -being of the participants.
This inauguration represents much more than the opening of a sports space. It is the confirmation of the commitment of the Real Madrid Foundation and its allies with equal opportunities and social development in Colombia. A commitment to form better people and provide new generations real tools to break inequality cycles.
