One World, One Goal

Throughout time, someone comes up with a great idea to address something that is missing or could be improved. However, they may find that their idea has already been made, tried, or failed.

NJ MED knows that other individuals and organizations have already taken efforts to achieve the goal of educating every child on the planet. The thought of giving every child an opportunity to be successful in life is nothing new.

Partnering with FIFA

With our unique approach, we will partner with FIFA, the world’s largest organization that has access to children in 209 nations.

With this access, they already have the platform to accomplish what needs to be done.

Our next step is to find a common ground and build on that relationship.

This begins with our focus on children. We both hope to engage children in a healthy developmental structure and most importantly, in a safe and orderly manner.

Defining hope

Hope can be defined in many ways. It can be defined as the desire to want something to happen or be true. It could also be defined as having a desire with the expectation of obtainment or fulfillment.

In both cases, hope is defined as wanting something to happen.

FIFA has already established FIFA Foundation, as an independent entity with the objectives to help promote positive social change around the world and raise support for the recovery and reconstruction of damaged or destroyed sports infrastructure worldwide.

This aligns with NJ MED’s mission to ensure every child has the opportunity to reach their full potential through access to quality education in a safe and nurturing environment.

NJ MED, with the support of our partners within the World Top 20 Project network, will work toward developing a relationship with FIFA.

BY:

  1. Requesting to become members of FIFA’s Foundation Initiative.
  2. Work with FIFA and their partners to use football to help build life skills.
  3. Work with FIFA to promote their Community Programme Project in nations around the world, including in 46 conflict zone nations.
  4. Provide educational tools and materials to FIFA’s Community Programme Project members to develop lifelong learning opportunities for all.

With this relationship, Hope will become a reality. And the goal to Educate Every Child on the Planet will Build A Better Future. One World, One Goal.
