Award winning Sport for Development NGO, Kick4Life (K4L) is seeking talented people.
Since 2007, Kick4Life has worked with more than 100,000 children and young people in Lesotho through a wide range of social development activities. From our initial focus exclusively on health education and HIV testing, we have developed an intensive and holistic model which supports participants in all areas of well-being, helping them work towards long-term sustainable livelihoods.
This has led to the development of a number of Social Enterprises, income generating projects which both support the financial sustainability of Kick4Life, as well as providing opportunities for young people to gain experience and employment. This includes our Restaurant No7, our social enterprise football team and our new hotel and conferencing centre. Through this approach, we are directly contributing to the social and economic development of Lesotho and we are preparing participants for a future where they can contribute to the development of their own communities.
