Ascent Soccer
OUR ‘WHY’ IN EAST AFRICA Talent and desire are equally distributed across the globe. Opportunity is not. Ascent Soccer starts at the grassroots, inspiring and nurturing talented girls and boys in East Africa to be brave, to lead by example and to believe in their ability to transform themselves, their communities and the world. Ascent Soccer is ‘exceptional talent empowered’. OUR MISSION & VISION Ascent Soccer, a social impact organization, transforms the lives of young men and women in some of East Africa’s poorest countries by providing opportunities for comprehensive education, critical life skills and character development -- combined with world-class soccer skill development. Based in Malawi & Uganda, with registered charity operations in the USA and Canada, Ascent was founded in 2014 and works with over 85 boys and girls carefully selected from across East Africa. Ascent graduates have gone on to win life-changing scholarships at elite global boarding schools, with other Ascent scholars representing the academy in youth national teams and at major European club tournaments. Ascent’s vision is to guide youth to realize and reach their potential, growing into exceptional young men and women who not only re-invest in their own communities, but provide opportunities for the success of future graduates. “Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds you plant.” Robert Louis Stevenson
