Soccer Without Borders

As one of the few global languages, soccer has the power to shape the world for the better.

Soccer Without Borders (SWB) uses soccer as a vehicle for positive change, providing youth in the U.S. and globally with a toolkit to overcome obstacles to growth, inclusion, and personal success. Founded in 2006, Soccer Without Borders is a leading non-profit in the sport-for-development sector, recognized by the FIFA Diversity Award, the Lipman Family Prize from the Wharton School of Business, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Sports Award, and two Beyond Sport Collective Impact Awards. With a focus on social inclusion of newcomer youth and girls, SWB’s programs provide participants with a platform for positive engagement, an avenue for personal growth, and a toolkit for a brighter future.
