The projects
Sport for Change is a project through which Fondazione Milan contributes to the fight against educational poverty, a phenomenon that is itself a cause of social exclusion and discrimination.
The main problems closely linked to educational poverty are juvenile deviance, i.e. minors in conflict with the law, and school dropout, phenomena that are growing rapidly in our country. It is therefore necessary to investigate and understand the needs and difficulties experienced by children from situations of hardship, in order to offer them adequate educational support and positive reference figures.
To this end, Fondazione Milan has chosen to collaborate with the Kayrós Association of Vimodrone, which hosts minors involved in criminal measures and individuals from situations of family and social distress in its community centres, with the aim of giving these children the hope of a better future.
The initiative, which uses sport as a tool for social change, has two main objectives:
The initiative is aimed at more than fifteen children and young adults, aged 14 to 21, Italians and foreigners, residing in Kayrós premises in Vimodrone and included in a specific educational program. Beneficiaries include subjects in conflict with the law and young people in situations of social or family hardship, considered at risk of school dropout.
It is planned to organize two training sessions per week, each lasting two hours, for a total of four hours per week. The sports and educational activities will be managed by two coaches/educators, supported by a project manager who will have the task of verifying and deepening the dynamics created within the group.
The activities of the Sport for Change project are carried out in close collaboration with Kayros Onlus. In particular we thank for the collaboration:

A small gesture is enough to contribute to the realization of projects in support of the most fragile and marginalized children.
