Spirrs team donated Tai Chung FC Fan Shirts to support Football for Life and local team Tai Chung FC.

Recently, I had the great pleasure of volunteering for a charity called Football for Life. Located in the heart of Hong Kong, Football for Life was founded Phillipe Bru in 2006, when the growing number of underprivileged children in Hong Kong sparked his initiative to change the desperate situation.  Bru was able to successfully merge his passion for the game and his calling to help by creating an alternative experience for children through football.  Since the organizations start, it has been dedicated to bettering the lives of underprivileged children through the sport of football.

Currently, the organization is working with over 10 organizations including Hong Kong Children & Youth Services, Hong Kong Federation for Youth Group, Christian Action, the Boys and Girls Clubs Association, HK Society for Protection of Children, Social Welfare Dpt, ISS, Evangel Children & the Neighbourhood Advice Action Council.

The growing organization has attracted world class footballers such as Didier Six and HK movie star, Eric Tsang Chi-Wai. Many more Football for Life Ambassadors have since joined the cause and the organization has continually shown its impact on the Hong Kong Community.

Football for Life-  It has become a phrase I have really grown to appreciate.  Football for Life represents an enthusiasm for the game of football we all love and enjoy, while directing all of it’s passion towards a very important cause. It reveals the need to pay attention to lives outside of our own, and shows us that football can be a celebration of life by sharing its joys with those less privileged. Football for Life Stands for more than just an organization that provides a place for kids to play, it provides hope, inspiration, and motivation for those who are passionate about the game and the lives of those around them.
