Details
In 2023, 114 non-governmental organizations (NGOs) were accepted onto the programme, which enables each applicant to apply for funding to help support football-related projects and initiatives within the communities in which they run.
For the first time, the 2024 edition of the programme will see the FIFA Foundation organize a series of workshops for NGOs around the world to share knowledge and assist with key elements of the application process, with the aim of reducing potentially admissible entities being rejected due to administrative errors in the application process. The first workshops will take place next week.
