YTD Raised: £24,181.35Thank you for visiting our BT MyDonate page. The John Paul II Foundation for Sport, launched October 2011, aims through sport to enable everyone, in particular the young, to develop their full potential in the physical, intellectual, emotional and spiritual aspects of their lives. John Paul II Foundation for Sport is guided by the principles identified by Pope John Paul II and set out in his declarations and writing. With this in mind, the Foundation has been busy supporting the creation of new sports clubs in parishes and schools across the country. The dream is to free up numerous school sports facilities to enable local young people to get off the streets to concentrate their energies and so turn ‘gangs into teams’.The first such club, Sports Squared, opened in September 2012. S2 uses the sports facilities at Sion-Manning School and St Charles VIth Form College, and offers sessions in basketball, dance, fitness, football and trampolining for local children and young adults on Friday evenings.Sports Squared is making an enormous difference to the community in Ladbroke Grove, London and is living proof just how valuable the work JP2F4S is undertaking.By Easter 2014 the number of clubs had reached 15 with more in the pipeline.

Once approved each athlete has their own page on our website and on Virgin Money Giving, where they can showcase their talent and individuality. You support the athletes of your choice; friends, family, school mates, club members, the wider sporting public, in fact anyone can help.
