Our Vision

To identify trainer of trainer (TOT) coaches, leaders and provide the relevant training through whole life and value – based coaching program

Our Mission

To conduct an accurate assessment of the opportunities for serving the church, 
​conducting training and equipping of coaches, referees, and leaders through whole life coaching program for all age groups.

Our Values

We are guided by these values:
1. Love
2. Submission
3. Integrity
4. Serving
5. Professionalism
6. Partnership

We believe there many benefits to serving together instead of by yourself. We compensate for each other’s weaknesses; we’re more efficient; we multiply our
effectiveness; we can defeat bigger problems, and we can support each other when we are tired or  discouraged.​
​
Our sports programs are holistic, recognizing the multiple dimensions of a person - mind, soul, spirit, and body. Our goal is to produce skilled athletes with positive values that will help change their world through modeling and service, serve the local church, facilitate disciple bible studies(DBS), train and equip leaders, run soccer academy and annual soccer camp, prison outreach, partner with like-minded people, provide sports equipment to refugees and our host community, conduct fitness training, and mentor and disciple professional athletes.
​
We have reached more than 300 soccer teams by among others:
  • Training 230 coaches and 80 referees in all the camps.
  • Donating 3,070 pieces of sports equipment
  • Direct coaching to 1,500 children and youth
  • Donated 5 sewing machines to 5 churches out of 15.

More about Sports Aid Africa

​For children and youth uprooted by war or displaced, sport is much more than a leisure activity. It is allowing for inclusivity, social protection, a chance to heal, develop and grow. Sport is a positive catalyst for empowering refugee communities, helping to
strengthen social cohesion and forge closer ties with host communities. Sports Aid Africa (SAA) is a Kenyan Non-Governmental Organization dedicated to serving these populations at risk residing in Dadaab, Kakuma and Kalobeyei refugee camp and our host community.

SAA helps the youth in refugee camps and in host communities cultivate their character and contribute to the world through sports programs. We nurture the gifts of youth and impart values that serve them and the world.

SAA seeks to achieve the following:
  • To empower vulnerable communities within the framework of peacebuilding, community integration, poverty reduction, Sports Management and Injury prevention trainings.
  • To use sports to effect behavior change, evangelism, discipleship, scout and develop talents and empower our refugees and marginalized community for posterity.
  • To help the children and youth from refugees and marginalized communities to cultivate their character and contribute to the world through their talents. We develop their talents and impart values that benefit their communities and the world.
  • To engage the children and youths to keep them away from social vices common in their surroundings. E.g., prostitution, gang violence, drug abuse, teenage pregnancies, school dropouts, child labor, lack of mentorship and talent development, etc.​
