The project Running Streetkids Chipata is an innovative attempt at the integration of street children into society. Besides a transit home for orphans three football teams were created. Football is what motivates the children. In this way they can get beyond street life and this allows the organisation to work together with the kids on a regular basis.
Today 15 boys and girls live at the orphanage and, together with over 100 other children from the area, they train five times a week and play a match against other teams from the regional league at weekends. Schooling is also organised for these children and, at regular intervals, individuals will start vocational training whereupon others take their place in the teams.
