MISSION STATEMENT

"Africa Peace Cup Foundation -founded in 2000- is committed to creating awareness of the hopeless position of all young victims of war and violence in Africa. Through diverse activities, initiatives and special events it is the goal of the Foundation to raise funds and support to raise the quality of their lives at present and improve the perspective for a better and self-sustaining future".

Having said that, from scratch the foundation tried its utmost best to realize a football match to raise fund but just like our victims, nobody -outside MIPCOM 2001- gave any support. Can you imagine? Therefore we are very greatful to the MIPCOM Organisation and after this experience we decided to support the AFRICA FOOTBALL ACADEMY with the goal to educate and train young talented players who will be able to play for Africa in the First Match in 2008.

Board of Recommendation

The Africa Peace Cup Foundation is supported by a Board of Recommendation, consisting of respected African statesmen and sportsmen. Their role is that of an ‘ambassador of peace’. The members of the board of recommendation support the ‘Mission’ and assist the Foundation by identifying the ‘areas in need’ in Africa and helping to establish and maintain contacts with organisations involved with the Africa Peace Cup annual match.

The Africa Peace Cup match

Imagine beautiful Africa. Summer 2008. A vibrant African savannah just before sundown. Members of indigenous tribes mix with children centred around a natural football field. Nelson Mandela, Kofi Annan, George Weah, Johan Cruyff, and Franz Beckenbauer are present to take their places as host of the match along the sidelines. In a natural arena 22 star players from Africa and Europe are ready for the kick-off for the first Africa Peace Cup, “Match for Peace”. The whistle of the referee is echoed by the rhythmic beat of a familiar African cadence and tom-toms. For the coming 2 hours there will be peace in Africa. In the rural areas as well as the rest of Africa and the world, people will be listening and experiencing the power of peace and the Africa Peace Cup.


“JOY OVERWHELMS SUFFERING WHEN FOOTBALL BRIDGES THE GAP”
