What’s it about
It's a classy streetfootballworld project, developed by the people, for the people. That's also why you won't find a typical construction project here - we believe true development happens when we invest in people.
The Exchange Programme takes two high potential youth from disadvantaged communities in Eastern Africa, and gives them the unique opportunity to spend a month at their counterpart's organisation. They gain job skills by working alongside the staff, share best practices from their own organisation and learn how their host approaches community development. They can then take all of their new knowledge and experiences with them back home to teach and share with others.
You won't see a building, but you will see change. Are you in?
*And if you still want to send me something, I won't say no :)

Dear friends!
I hope that you enjoyed the holiday season and had a great start into 2012!
We've wrapped up our online fundraising campaign to raise funds towards a Young leader Exchange in East Africa. We are delighted to announce that we have successfully raised the €1,500 to send two promising youth on the exchange via the campaigns on betterplace (56%) and sosense.org (44%). We would like to thank all of you for your support in making this a success!
We will be using these funds to organize one Youth Exchange between two organisations of our East African Network! The exchange is planned to take place within the first half of 2012 and the participating youth and respective organizations will be selected in the coming weeks.
We'll keep the project online in order to keep you informed about further progress ... and to continue to raise funds to send more youth on this valuable exchange!

Thank you again for all of your support!!!
Much love,
Steph
**The idea of the exchange is for a young leader to spend time at a fellow member organisation in the region, getting to know the work of that organisation and ideally concluding their stay with a collaborative activity that will meet the needs of both organizations – for example, a training workshop, football3 tournament, community activity, etc. This exchange will not only have a positive impact in building the young person’s job and life skills, it will also help participating organizations increase their impact with local youth by expanding their knowledge base through the exchange of experience, best practices and competences.
