On July 1, 2023, Jakim Foundation organized the Tapach Tournament in West Pokot, uniting six teams in a celebration of football, community spirit, and social impact. This event exemplified our commitment to using sports as a catalyst for positive change among Kenya's youth.
The tournament not only showcased the talent of young footballers but also served as a platform for community engagement and social initiatives. This aligns perfectly with our mission to create opportunities for personal growth, leadership, and civic participation among Kenyan youth.
The Tapach Tournament was a resounding success, featuring several key initiatives that reflect Jakim Foundation's holistic approach to community development:
Team Support: Each of the six participating teams, comprising seventeen players, received full kits, including goalkeeper gloves and a ball, fostering a sense of unity and professionalism among the young athletes.
Cash Prizes: A total of 350,000 KES was allocated for cash prizes, motivating the teams and recognizing their hard work and talent.
Community Support: Beyond the football pitch, we donated 200 boxes of sanitary pads to support the local community, addressing critical health and hygiene needs.
