It has been 2 years since we start our page on GlobalGiving. We are so thankful for your support, so many thing we have done and achieve in the past two years. Most of the story are the preparation for the girls to attend the Street Child World Cup which has done in October 2022. Our message remain the same from we start this project, to "Kick Out Discrimination! Promoting gender equality.The girls team continue their task as ambassador in our sports program. Bringing message to their peer group, to young people that girls deserve equal opportunity and treated respectedly, just like boys does.
In February until March, we went to Cianjur to give psychosocial support for children and friends in Cianjur who survive earthquake that happen in November 2022. There are people that still live in the camp and temporary shelter. The girls share their experience and playing few games with children there. At the same period, the girls follow COURAGE Training, a group therapy session to overcome traumatic experience. In line with our campaign and awareness to promote Equality, on April the girls had coaching clinic and game session with Indonesia Women Football Association (ASBWI). This collaboration streghten the message that girls should have equal opportunity in sports and treated with respect.
"Kick-Out Discrimination" not only means to kick gender discrimination, but also economy discrimination. Right now to rent a futsal field in Jakarta, it could cost about 150,000-200,000 IDR per hour. Usually to practice and playing could spend 2 hours of training or equal with $20 - $25. It has been increased in the past two years. This is why we need your support to enable us give the equal opportunity for under priviledge children. It become more difficult and expensive to find a futsal field and practicing sports for under priviledge children. We are glad that in April we got new partner named gelora.id, an organization that promoting community to do sports. Throug projet called "Game Donation", gelora.id provide free space of futsal field for us to facilitate a tournament and coaching clinic sessiong. You can also donate to us to give this opportunity to the children.
Together, we can Kick-Out Discrimination out of sports! Let's play for equality!
