Kairo Link Foundation is an international nonprofit organization committed to giving every child a chance.

We believe that talent exists everywhere, but opportunity does not. Our mission is to remove barriers that prevent young people from reaching their full potential by providing access to sports, education, and essential community support.

In Charlotte, North Carolina, we focus on creating affordable, high-level soccer opportunities for children from underprivileged families who are often priced out of today’s pay-to-play system. Through soccer, mentorship, and life-skills development, we help youth grow both on and off the field.

Internationally, we support youth programs in The Gambia through our partner club, Marenah FC. These programs extend beyond sports to include education support, college pathways, life skills training, and critical community initiatives such as access to water, food assistance, shelter, schooling, performance arts, and holistic youth development.

Soccer is our entry point, but our work goes far beyond the game. At Kairo Link Foundation, we are building pathways that help young people develop confidence, discipline, and the tools they need to succeed in life—wherever they are born.

Together with families, community leaders, and partners, we are working to create real, lasting impact—one child, one family, and one community at a time.
