Amazing gesture by Spurs sponsor supports underprivileged children

Some consider London the soccer capital of the world, as it has 12 different professional clubs that deliver incredible performances week in and week out. Furthermore, six of these clubs actually play in England’s top tier: The Premier League. Tottenham Hotspur is one of them.

It goes without saying that Spurs are one of the biggest teams in Europe, as they consistently play in either the Champions League, where they reached the final in 2019, or the Europa League. In their 138-year history, the Lilywhites have earned 2 Premier League titles, 8 FA Cups, and 3 UEFA Cups.

Tottenham is very well known for its white jerseys, often paired with navy blue details, and this season’s kits are no different. The base of the jersey is still white, but it features light gray highlights, giving it an almost camo effect. Furthermore, the shoulders feature thick navy blue stripes that also run down the sides, but much thinner. These stripes are accompanied by neon yellow ones that can also be found in the collar. The front features AIA, the jersey sponsor that has appeared on the players’ chests since 2014.

However, keen-eyed fans will have noticed that AIA was recently replaced for one game. In the match against Sheffield United, which ended in a convincing 4-0 victory for Spurs thanks to a Gareth Bale hat trick, AIA offered its spot on the jersey to ISF.

The Indochina Starfish Foundation (ISF) is a Cambodian charity with more than 13 years of experience using education and sports to change lives. In the Indochina region, many children live in poverty and are unable to get a good education, as fewer than 5% of Cambodian youth finish high school. Many children have to work in dire circumstances and often do not have a long life expectancy. ISF’s vision and mission are therefore very clear: “A society free from poverty and inequality” and “to increase access to education, healthcare, and sports, enabling underprivileged children and their communities to lift themselves out of poverty.”

Thanks to this amazing gesture by AIA and Spurs, not only have thousands of children been helped, but Tottenham has also created a unique jersey! A jersey that fans and collectors can now get their hands on!

These amazing kits are now available, and the funds raised will support the incredible work of ISF Cambodia and the Tottenham Hotspur Foundation.
