Jamal
Chicago, USA
"Before joining Sport for Peace, I was always angry. Basketball taught me teamwork and patience. Now, I coach younger kids in my neighborhood—sports saved me."
Amina
Syrian Refugee Camp
"In the Peace Games, I played soccer with kids from the ‘other side’ of the war. For the first time, we weren’t enemies—just teammates laughing together."
David M.
UN Peacebuilding Office
"Sport for Peace USA’s model is revolutionary. Their programs in conflict zones have reduced youth violence by 40% in our partnered regions."
Carlos V.
MLS Player & SFP Ambassador
"As a Peace Ambassador, I’ve seen kids in war zones smile for the first time while kicking a ball. Sports don’t just build players—they build peacemakers."

Ambassadors of Peace
Athletes as Changemakers
We train professional and amateur athletes to become mentors and advocates in their communities. Ambassadors lead clinics, speak on peacebuilding, and inspire the next generation.
Featured Ambassadors:

Sports in Conflict Zones
Healing Through Play
We partner with refugee camps and post-war regions to deliver trauma-informed sports programs. Simple games become tools for psychological recovery and social cohesion.
