Projects and initiatives.

Doveson FC.

Doveson FC is one of the well-known youth sports programs in our community Jachie Pramso, Kumasi, Ghana .

It was established to help the Jachie-Pramso community get young boys off the street through Sports. They believe that sport has the power to empower young people to be become leaders in their communities and become active citizens on the local, national and international level. We also believe that sport improves the health, wellbeing and connectivity of communities.

Each year, the staff of NABCF/Doveson FC organizes a community football tournament for young individuals and local teams in the area. The aim is to ensure a positive sporting experience by creating a safe and secure environment. The tournament seeks to increase opportunities for involvement in sports for individuals aged 6-25, fostering skill enhancement and the realization of their full potential at both local and national levels.

The Nana Akua Badu Charity Foundation and Doveson FC staff are dedicated to expanding and enhancing all sporting events promoted by Doveson FC. This involves creating sports-related educational materials and refining the competencies of young participants, such as leadership, communication, socialization, and team-building skills, to empower them as active citizens within their community.

Through collaboration between KAMM Artistic Europe and NABCF/Doveson FC, both organizations are committed to supporting each other to achieve their shared goals. The objective is to provide a safe and inclusive environment for young people in Africa and around the world, enabling them to develop in various aspects of their lives and ultimately become active global citizens.
