Since 2020 — Cairo, Egypt

Sport speaks a language borders can't stop.

We bring together orphaned children across the Arab world and Africa under one banner — through sport — to build safer, more just generations, and open a path toward a society that cares for them and believes in them.

About Us

Sport is our path to sustainable community development

We found no better way to bring our orphaned children together than sport — a universal language that unites peoples and nations, beyond color, origin, social class, language, religion, and political divides.

The Arab African Sports Foundation for Orphans (AASFO) was founded on 1 December 2020, to coordinate and connect institutions and homes caring for orphans across the world — working toward their social advancement and raising a safe, stable generation that helps build more just and peaceful communities.

As the Geneva Declaration of the Rights of the Child affirms, sport plays a vital role in a child's physical, mental, psychological, and social development — improving their health and academic performance, and helping steer them away from crime.

What We Do

Four pillars we work through for our children

We offer advice and guidance to orphan care institutions, and coordinate between them to hold sporting competitions, festivals, and championships, in line with the regulations in force in each country.

Sport & Talent

  • Competitions between orphan care homes
  • Discovering and nurturing talent
  • Teams and squads for local and international championships

Health & Care

  • Medical and treatment support for injured players
  • Childhood and maternal care
  • Care for the elderly and people with special needs

Education & Culture

  • Grants and aid for education, in Egypt and abroad
  • Scientific, cultural, and awareness activities
  • Conferences and workshops linking academia and industry

Social Support

  • Regular material and in-kind aid for families
  • Resolving life and legal issues facing orphans
