Kit
Aid is helping under privilege clubs, teams and schools to help develop them in
the aspect of sports with the organisation’s donation of football jerseys to
eight schools and clubs.

big challenge to finance the shipment from overseas to The Gambia and called on
institutions to be helping them as the kits are free but the transportation
attracts cost.

women to be more engaged in sports, saying that women in the country should see
sports as business in which they can own and manage teams.

jerseys.

have been donating to schools, Nawettan teams, clubs and other groups that
correctly applied for them. We do not only give out football jerseys but also
in other sports such as cricket.
