Our partners at Jaja Film Productions continue to shine a light on the power of sport and storytelling, with two remarkable documentaries capturing the spirit of the Street Child United movement: Cricket Dreams and Where The Kids Have No Name.

“From the very first moment, this experience transformed me”

Last month, Mexico City welcomed more than 30 team leaders from around the world for the landmark Street Child World Cup summit. It was a week of connection, collaboration, and shared purpose, the first big step on our journey to the next Street Child World Cup in May 2026.

Role Purpose

The Head of Fundraising and Partnerships will design, lead, and implement Street Child United’s (SCU) income-generation strategy with a focus on three core strands: writing applications to Trusts and Foundations, cultivating relationships with High Net Worth Individuals (HNWIs), and designing and pitching sponsorship packages to corporates. This role is central to ensuring the long-term sustainability and growth of SCU’s mission, driving forward diversified income streams through strategic fundraising, relationship management, and innovative partnerships.

Sport has the power to transform lives—building confidence, leadership, teamwork, and health. Yet for millions of girls, that opportunity ends too soon. By age 14, girls are dropping out of sport at twice the rate of boys—and in some regions, six times higher.
