organisation that uses sports to engender broad socio-economic development, while also effecting positive social change. Founded in 1987 in the Mathare area of Nairobi, home to some of Africa’s biggest and poorest slums, MYSA runs a variety of youth and children centered programmes focusing on sports, environment, health, education and the arts. To date, MYSA has directly impacted well over 200,000 children and youth in Kenya,  ganda, Tanzania, Sudan and Botswana.
