We transform lives
Our footballs aren’t just made they’re handcrafted with care, dignity, and purpose by local artisans, many of them women. Through our ball-making project, we provide meaningful work and steady income to families across Rwanda.
For the women in our program, this is more than a job. It’s a chance to support their children, build their confidence, and become part of a movement that’s changing lives one stitch, one ball, one future at a time. Every ball holds more than air; it holds a story, a purpose, and a prayer for something better.
When you support us, you’re not just buying a product; you’re empowering people, strengthening communities, and helping build a brighter future through the work of their hands.
Ms. Seraphine
Ms. Seraphine commenced her involvement with the Ambassadors Football program at the age of 10. Two years later, at the age of 12, she partook in the 2018 Ambassadors Football camp and competed as a member of the Ambassadors national girl championship team. Alongside her musical pursuits, she established a youth choir for players within her community. Upon completing her secondary education and encountering employment challenges, she joined the ball-making team in her community, endeavoring to generate income to fulfill her personal needs.
Odette komezusenge
Odette, a 19-year-old participant, has been actively engaged with the Ambassadors Football ministry since the age of 12. Her involvement in the ministry led to her embracing the Christian faith, an experience that her mother also shared. As a proficient football player, Odette has contributed significantly to her community, with her team achieving recognition as one of the finest in the region. Regrettably, due to personal challenges, she was unable to complete her secondary education.
Celestin Boshyuwenda
Mr. Celestin Boshyuwenda is the visionary behind the Ambassadors Football Ministry in the Kagamba area, where he established a ball-making facility. Trained by Ambassadors Football, he has successfully led the ministry, positively impacting the lives of many children by introducing them to the sport and guiding them back to education. Celestin’s exceptional coaching skills have propelled his girls’ team to the top of the Northern region. As the leader of the group manufacturing footballs for Ambassadors Group Rwanda Ltd., he is dedicated to not only fostering his team’s success but also contributing to the economic growth of his community. By integrating his team into the ball-making program, they are now honing their skills with the very balls they produce, creating a sustainable and impactful cycle of growth.
Aloys
After witnessing the miracle of creation, I now understand why God declared everything “good”. I believe that God must have been as joyful as Aloys, who once couldn’t fathom creating a football. Today, Aloys not only knows how to craft a football but also builds a house from scratch with the earnings from his ball-making business. He aims to complete his house by summer. Aloys, formerly a non-believer, is now under the guidance of a ball-making leader and is attending a discipleship class, aspiring to marry in the church. Let’s keep Aloys in our prayers as he follows the path of Jesus and continues making balls for the children of Rwanda.
