Widnes Football Club is proud to support the 'Play4Change' project in Guinea-Bissau.
The Club has donated old, returned match kit as well as football essentials to boys and girls of all ages to make football more accessible in the country.
As well as supporting players in their love of football with dedicated training sessions, equipment and building new facilities, the project also provides job skills training and education for the youngsters.
These skills are used to support to the local community and recent developments include installing water pumps in remote villages to provide communities with fresh, clean and safe drinking water.
Club fundraising co-ordinator Sarah-Louise Cullen said: "“The skills these young people are taught, are then used to support their local community, and there have been recent developments including water pump installations in remote villages.
“The project is run by Jordan Parker, based in Salford, and Moy Moises, who has recently returned to Guinea-Bissau having played football in the north west for a number of years.”
