Mission Statement
Mission: The Sanneh Foundation, a 501(c)3 youth development organization, provides life skills programs for at-risk children using soccer as the catalyst to empower kids, improve lives and unite communities. We empower kids by providing leadership-skill development and mentoring, along with access to a safe and healthy environment to learn and play. We improve lives by supporting and promoting educational attainment through in-school and after-school programming, tutoring and college preparatory training. We unite communities by advancing diversity, promoting community service, and fighting racism through individual training and institutional change.
About This Cause
History Tony Sanneh, a St. Paul native and recently retired professional soccer player, founded the Sanneh Foundation in 2003 with a goal of helping inner city kids. After 15 years playing professional soccer – including playing for the U.S. in the 2002 World Cup – Tony moved back to St. Paul in 2009 to dedicate himself full-time to work of the Sanneh Foundation. “I grew up with my communities constantly helping and supporting me. There was never any doubt in my mind that I would come back to Minnesota and offer that same support to others.” – Tony Sanneh
