Nsefu Wildlife is introducing organized soccer to the youth of the Nsefu Sector

Nsefu Wildlife is introducing organized soccer to the youth of the Nsefu Sector in our “Anti-poaching Initiatives” program.

Team member and Operations Mgr Steve Zulu did an excellent report on identifying vulnerabilities with the youth in our sector with respect to poaching and wildlife trafficking. Taking into account the overall poverty and lack of employment in the region and country, it was acknowledged that having organized sports would be an excellent way to occupy the youth and would give opportunity to showcase truly talented athletes and potentially offer a chance to rise above poverty with a professional career in soccer!

Our wonderful supporters Danny Donnelly and Ben Protas Sr of 5 Star Communications have stepped up with offering to equip the teams with goal posts, soccer balls and more. Also, thanks to Adrienne Schroder for her donation towards our soccer initiative and towards education. We are hoping to ship a container over this year with all sorts of gear and supplies to help support our programs.
