Fútbol Por Mi País (FxP) is a non-profit foundation that is dedicated to providing education to boys, girls and young people through sports.
Our methodology has been proven by Fútbol con Corazón, an organization that has been successfully applying it for more than 15 years in Colombia and other countries in America.
FxP has been working in Costa Rica since 2020, supporting more than 500 participants and their families from communities in the Nicoya Peninsula and Los Cuadros de Purral free of charge.
Our objective is to train leaders in the communities where we operate, using the immense potential of football for development. We are committed to creating a positive impact on the lives of young people and the future of our country.
On-field training sessions
Minutes of work per session
Family workshops
Each session has a nutritious snack
With the efforts of our allies, the children receive a basic food basket along with a soccer uniform and shoes.
We prioritize the comprehensive training of girls, boys and young people, instilling in them values such as tolerance, honesty, solidarity and respect, in addition, we strengthen life skills so that the participants are good people, both inside and outside the field of game.
We believe in the importance of support in education as a fundamental pillar for comprehensive development. We foster an environment of trust and support where each student feels valued and motivated to achieve their academic and personal goals.
We build a network of allies based on the nutrition of the participants, since, thanks to them, we manage to offer a nutritious snack after each training session. We teach them about good eating practices so they learn to take care of their bodies.
We work with the commitment to provide a safe and welcoming space, where boys and girls can socialize, create bonds of friendship and prepare to manage their life project. Our training sessions not only focus on the development of sports skills, they mainly integrate recreational activities that allow the development of socio-emotional skills to maintain a healthy mind and body.
Our organization is committed to working for community development through programs and activities that promote inclusion, civic participation and strengthening community ties between children, families and neighbors of all ages. Through cleaning and infrastructure work, we strive to recover public recreational spaces that belong to children and adolescents.
