CAMOCIM – Just a few months ago, the scheme looked really tricky and that’s why we liked it immediately. After our first meeting with the partner organisation last summer, we got to work to see whether we could feasibly set up a new scheme in Brazil.
Our initial site visit allowed us to meet the kids, check out the schools, meet the teachers and the future coaches. Yes, it was feasible! The local authorities welcomed our project enthusiastically, making their sports facilities and school buses available to shuttle the kids between lessons and the pitch.
Last, but by no means least, we must mention Costa Incorporadora, our proud partner in Brazil – who will support the project for five years – and our local partner Fundação Brincar de Viver, who believe in the values of sport and work with children.
The opening ceremony was held in the city’s main square with the mayor, secretary for sport, police and even a band in attendance. That kicked off a fun game in which 85 kids received Nerazzurri shirts and shorts, officially become a part of the Inter Campus family.
From tomorrow they’ll be out there to learn and grow together. The real fun starts now!
