Play31 was founded on the basis of Article 31 of The Convention on the Rights of the Child, which stipulates that every child has the right to play. We provide children in different parts of the world with a most basic necessity for play: a football. We believe that the game of football has unifying power, and our goal is to work with local organizations who can use the “beautiful game” as a pathway toward creating peaceful societies.
