New Year donations arrive in Nigeria! Thank you to Wilson Tennis Europe in Germany for the very generous donations gifted to Africa Tennis Aid last year. A large shipment of Wilson tennis donations, rackets and shoes left the UK and Germany, shipped by Samuel Porreh Jalloh, and have been excitedly received and distributed out in the Ibadan State of Nigeria to children and young Africans at tennis clubs and academies - many of which are girls!


Still in certain parts of the world, including Africa, social issues like gender roles and expectations - along with lack of resources - can still act as a barrier for girls and young women with little to no opportunities to participate in sport. Tennis donations of rackets and balls can really empower girls and young women into sport from a young age to help change their futures and chase their dreams ... see how it changed Francisca Nyarko's life in Ghana


Racket and Tennis Donations can help change the future for girls in sport around the world







Very Happy African youths getting brand new Wilson shoes!

The scene is filled with joy and excitement as a group of African youths gathers together, their faces beaming with delight. Each young person is eagerly anticipating the moment they receive their brand new Wilson shoes, a symbol of not just athleticism but also hope and opportunity. The shoes, known for their quality and performance, are highly sought after, and the sight of them brings an infectious energy to the atmosphere.


As the youths line up, their conversations are filled with laughter and enthusiasm. Many of them share stories about their dreams and aspirations, discussing how these shoes will not only enhance their athletic performance in sports but also boost their confidence in various activities. For some, these shoes represent a step towards achieving their goals, whether it be excelling in school sports, participating in community events, or simply enjoying recreational activities with friends.


The excitement is palpable as each pair of Wilson shoes is handed out, accompanied by cheers and applause from the crowd. The youths carefully examine their new footwear, admiring the sleek design and vibrant colors. They try them on, and the smiles grow even wider as they feel the comfort and support that the shoes provide. It’s a moment of celebration, where the simple act of receiving a new pair of shoes transforms into a memorable experience that fosters camaraderie and community spirit.


Moreover, this event goes beyond just the distribution of shoes; it highlights the importance of supporting youth initiatives and promoting physical activity among young people. The impact of receiving such items can be profound, encouraging a healthier lifestyle and fostering a sense of belonging. As they lace up their new Wilson shoes, these young individuals are reminded that they are not alone in their journey; they are part of a larger community that believes in their potential and future.


In conclusion, the distribution of brand new Wilson shoes to these very happy African youths is not merely about footwear; it symbolizes empowerment, unity, and the promise of a brighter future. It serves as a reminder of the positive impact that such initiatives can have on the lives of young individuals, inspiring them to chase their dreams and make a difference in their communities.
