Beyond the poetry of the passes, movement of the players, shots and goals, the beauty of football lies deeper. Embedded in the game is the power to unite, build bridges and lift individuals and groups to new heights. It's a game of passion, teamwork, camaraderie… It can be a beautiful game.
Bonito Foundation exists to make football better by supporting people and organizations who use it as a force for good.
Football has the power to make the world better. We're here to make sure it does.

A world with peaceful and sustainable societies, where football plays a part in helping people to live happy and healthy lives while helping the planet to regenerate.
Bonito should contribute to increased and better engagement in the football sector, helping it improve its efforts to support the global field of Sport for Development and Peace (S4D).
Our game model consists of four guiding principles:
- Unite
- Support
- Coach
- Play
We provide online and in-person spaces for people in football to meet, build relationships, and learn from each other.
We build platforms that enable us to support people and organizations in the Football For Good sector. By helping them tell their stories, we make them better.
As advocates for football as a force for good, we improve and inspire parents, coaches, players, and everyone involved in the beautiful game.
Through education, training, and guidance, focusing on mental health using concepts such as Emotional Intelligence and Social Emotional Learning, we’ll foster a positive and supportive environment that enhances the football experience for all!
We’ll organize football activities, such as camps, matches, and tournaments, either ourselves or in collaboration with others.
Our commitment to the S4D sector contributes to the following Global Goals:
-
Good health and well-being
-
Quality education
-
Gender equality
-
Decent work and economic growth
-
Reduced inequalities
-
Sustainable cities and communities
-
Climate action
-
Peace, justice and strong institutions
All our operations comply with The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, and we promote the inclusion of safeguarding practices with all partners and activities.
