“Barcelona shows us that sports can be a powerful, positive force for children,” Ann M. Veneman, UNICEF’s Executive Director, said, describing the landmark alliance with the Club as a “priceless” donation.

Sports can be a great equalizer and motivating factor for thousand kids. Sports can both teach and ready numerous children. Such initiatives from International organizations and also the corporate community that gives back to the society, go a long way in helping causes.
