About Us

United Through Sport was founded in 2004 and ever since then has been sending thousands of volunteers overseas every year to help make a difference in disadvantaged communities. Starting with sports & teaching projects in South Africa, United Through Sport has now expanded with satellite projects in Argentina, The Caribbean, Ghana, Mauritius, Thailand and More.

We believe that sport is an incredible tool to bring people together to have fun and build relationships. As a charity, we focus our work on improving education, raising health awareness and building life skills in children from disadvantaged communities and we need help from individuals like you to join in with this effort.

Do you love sport and travel? Then come and experience our project work first hand!  You can get involved with sports coaching projects, life skill classes, feeding programmes and much more. You’ll also create strong bonds with the kids you teach, as well as those on volunteer projects with you. On top of this you will have the chance to visit some incredible countries, get involved in fun activities and immerse yourself in a new culture.

Our charity sports trips are ideal for summer holidays, gap years, career breaks and sports clubs.

Every year hundreds of keen volunteers put their time and effort into improving the lives of the children we work with, each bringing their own unique skills and ideas to our projects. We welcome individuals from all backgrounds and walks of life.

Join the international United Through Sport community by joining us as a volunteer as a sports coach or teacher. We are reliant on the kind efforts of people like you, and we look forward to hearing what you can bring to the children we work with!
