We use sport to provide important life skills training, educational opportunities, leadership development, and global experiences for talented young people. When you support DBA Africa, you are not just funding a sports program. You are helping real people, shaping real futures, and making opportunities fairer for everyone.

Donate New and Used Sports Equipment

Do you have sports equipment, clothing or footwear that’s no longer in use? From worn-in running shoes and old team kits to school uniforms and balls, your donations can make a real difference. Our sports and youth development programmes rely on generous contributions of new and used items to support young athletes across Africa. Whether it’s a pair of boots or a full set of kit, every item finds a second home with junior and academy athletes who will use them with pride and purpose. We also welcome partnerships with sports clubs, schools, universities, national teams, and sports brands looking to contribute surplus gear or host donation drives.

Stand with Kenyan athletes

Athletics Race Fund

The DBA Athletics Race Fund is here to support Kenyan athletes facing financial barriers to compete in races. Kenyan athletes, particularly in distance running, are among the world's best but often lack the financial resources to compete. Many athletes live off £100 a month, struggling with the costs of entry fees, travel, and other essentials, but still train up to 180km a week purely on determination and hope. This fund provides a lifeline by covering these expenses, enabling athletes to showcase their skills, catch the eyes of management and sponsors whilst reaching their potential and earning a living to support their families.

Support a Future Lacrosse Star

The DBA Africa Lacrosse Academy in Kampala, Uganda, currently supports over 80 young athletes, with a goal of reaching 200 by the end of 2026. Many of these players come from under-resourced communities with limited opportunities to play and learn. Through our weekend academy, we provide hope, life skills, and opportunity, but we can’t do it without your support. Your support helps cover:

  • Weekly training
  • Coaching and mentorship
  • Tournaments and festivals
  • Equipment

For just £35 / $50, you can sponsor a player for an entire year. Or give £175 to cover the cost of a tournament. All donations, no matter the size, make a difference. Whether you're an individual, school, or club looking to support the academy, get in touch with us today.
