Goals For Gambia

Changing lives, one goal at a time.

About The Foundation

Goals For Gambia is a student-led foundation dedicated to empowering Gambian youth through football, education, and access to clean water.

Goals For Gambia partners with North Star Academy AFC and the North Bank Regional Football Association to deliver real, lasting change in the community of Kerr Jatta, Nuimi. From running summer camps to funding borehole drilling projects, our mission is to merge sports development with community empowerment so that every young Gambian has the tools to dream big and the resources to chase those dreams.

Our Mission

Football

Deliver structured football training, mentorship, and life skills workshops that help young Gambians excel on and off the field.

Water

Fund borehole drilling projects so entire communities have access to clean, reliable water — the foundation of every other opportunity.

Community

Work hand-in-hand with local academies, schools, and leaders to build programs that last long after we go home.

What We've Done

Our journey so far — and we're just getting started.

Equipped Young Players

Distributed footballs, jerseys, kits, and gear to dozens of young athletes across the North Bank Region.

Honored by the Community

At the camp's closing ceremony, attended by the provincial governor and FA directors, our founders were named honorary citizens of The Gambia — a moment we'll never forget.
