Everyone has the right to dream and talent deserves opportunity. Right to Dream is a purpose-only football community who believe there is a better way to recognise and nurture emerging talent. Whilst talented individuals can be found all around us, it can be more difficult for some to discover the opportunities they deserve. We recognise where talent exists locally and open up opportunities for young people to fulfil their potential in football, in education and in life. Academies are where it all started in 1999, with our first Right to Dream football academy in Ghana boasting an innovative model nurturing potential. By developing and increasing our trailblazing academies, professional football clubs and education network, we have proudly launched the careers of 146 professional football players, equipped hundreds of our students with a first-class education and enabled further education opportunities and scholarships. We have big ambitions for the future focused on increasing impact, opportunities and inspiring further positive change within football. Powered by $120m of investment from The Mansour Group, our valued partners and 300 purpose-driven leaders, we put our Dreamers’ development first. When it’s a team effort, everybody wins.
