The mission of the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation is to utilise the power of sport to address social challenges through a global programme of sports-related community development initiatives, using sport as a tool for social change. The Foundation supports 84 projects worldwide, and since its inception Laureus has raised more than €40m for projects which have helped to improve the lives of one-and-a-half million young people. Laureus, whose patron is Nelson Mandela, is a universal movement that celebrates the power of sport to bring people together as a force for good. Laureus is composed of three core elements - the Laureus World Sports Academy, the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation and the Laureus World Sports Awards - which collectively celebrate sporting excellence and harness the power of sport to promote social change.
