What We Do

 

OFC has long recognised the power of football to develop individuals and communities and has led the delivery of football for development programmes which address challenges specific to our region. The OFC Social Responsibility team will be a key partner and enabler for change driving initiatives to address issues of poor health, social exclusion, poverty, and the disruptions caused by climate change.

“We know football is a powerful tool to engage children, adults and communities and we have seen the diverse positive benefits that come from being involved in our sport,” – Head of Social Responsibility Michael Armstrong
