Bologna midfielder Godfred Donsah has announced his decision to set up a foundation for charity to be based in Sunyani.

The foundation- to be launched this December-will focus on four strategic pillars: Sport and Social Inclusion, Health and Wellbeing, Safer and Stronger Communities and Skills and Training Programmes.

According to a press statement signed by Executive Director Hannah Kyeremaa Donsah, the Godfred Donsah Foundation will also provide  ‘Walk-In and Drop-In services’ and offer youth counselling, ICT training, business development skills and employable skill training to prepare the youth for employment.

The Ghana international hopes to use his personal challenges as a great motivational factor for young people and providing pathways for youth development.

''The Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) is an inclusive agenda and believe sport, including football, has proven to be a cost-effective and flexible tool in promoting peace and developmental objectives,'' Donsah said.

He wants to use his foundation to sell and help the nation to achieve the Global Goal 3 and 4 of ensuring healthy lives and promote well-being for all and ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all respectively.

The 'Donsah League' will also provide coaching and mentorship opportunities for the youth through football training.

He has secured a-40-footer container with sporting goods, hospital equipment, educational materials and other learning materials which he would distribute to schools and communities during the winter transfer window when he visits the country in December, this year, where the foundation would also be officially launched.

''All children will also have the opportunity to achieve their fullest potential through excellent education and provision of better health care and contribute to all aspects of life'' he added.
