Meet the Team

Founder & CEO
Tom Sweetnam
At the age of 17, Tom had the idea of collecting a few pairs of second hand football boots from his mates at school and sending them out to Kenya....8 years on we're now lucky enough to partner with 6 professional football clubs and receive thousands of kits every year. We're currently working on a number of exciting projects which we can't wait to launching in the coming months.
​
It has been an incredibly rewarding journey so far and he is looking forward to continuing to grow the charity, expanding its operations with the help of the amazing team.
