We promote Education. Language. Team spirit. Community. Culture.      

What we do

We use the power of soccer to ensure that every child has the opportunity to receive a good education.
With our projects, we create motivating and inspiring approaches to language, culture and movement.

Voices of change

Our projects are made possible by numerous supporters from sport, business and society as well as highly committed local project teams.
They play a key role in supporting us on our path to greater educational equality.

Ridle Baku, professional footballer and nationwide ambassador for "Fußball trifft Kultur"

"When Karin Plötz from "Fußball trifft Kultur" approached me with the idea of supporting the program as an ambassador, I was immediately enthusiastic. Combining the social power of soccer with remedial teaching - I think that's great. I would like to help as much as I can. "

Bryan Hein, SSV Jahn Regensburg, program sponsor for the Regensburg location

"TheFußball trifft Kulturproject is good for the children. They discover something new about soccer and by combining soccer and lessons, the children also enjoy learning."

Participants of "Fußball trifft Kultur"

"In German lessons, we always played so many cool German games. We stick together as a team and I've made new friends."

Franziska Fey, Chairwoman of the Board of the DFL Foundation

"It is the combination of soccer, skills development and culture that makes the program special and inspires the children. They improve their language skills, get moving and gain cultural experiences. All of this boosts their self-confidence and helps them to develop."

Tim Gailus, journalist and TV presenter

"Fußball trifft Kultur" makes children strong: team spirit meets education and culture. And soccer clubs set an example for rousing and sustainable teaching. That's a great tactic.

Ala Noorani-Yazdanabad, program teacher Bochum

"At the final tournament, it became clear that the children had grown together as a team and were committed to each other. Overall, you can see a more self-confident demeanor and a more confident command of the German language among the pupils."

Prof. Dr. Rolf Schwarz, "Fußball trifft Kultur"-Manual 2019

"The "Fußball trifft Kultur" program has great potential, especially in the substantial values of successful integration: the will and openness to build a common, interpersonal, thriving society. This includes an appreciation of others and the acquisition of basic democratic rules."

Nia Künzer, former player at 1. FFC Frankfurt and program sponsor at the Frankfurt site

"Fußball trifft Kultur" combines sport with fun and learning. With fun and commitment, you can achieve a lot in both soccer and learning."

Christian Rode, project teacher from "Fußball trifft Kultur"

"Children who contributed little to lessons in everyday school life blossomed in Löwenstark beyond the school year. Friendships that were unimaginable within the school class were made possible by the project. The children gained self-confidence and independence."
