More about Athletes for Africa: SUCCEED!
SUCCEED! Naturally curious and eager to learn new sporting activities, African children of all ages benefit from participating in Athletes for Africa SUCCEED! programs. We support children who have lost their parents to AIDS by encouraging them to succeed not only in sports but in all aspects of their lives. Our sports program builds self-confidence, encourages teamwork, and develops awareness about preventing HIV/AIDS. SUCCEED! focuses on each child’s strengths by encouraging them to strive to do their best in each new sport. We promote the use of their talents for the greater good of the community. We help each child develop healthy habits, while empowering them to reach attainable goals.
Our SUCCEED! program teaches them that their lives matter and that they can succeed, despite the absence of parental guidance. Emphasizing the power of teamwork, SUCCEED!’s strategy builds each child up to use his or her gifts for the greater good of whole.
