About Us

The Kano Foundation is a charity run by volunteers passionate about keeping football free for kids. 

We believe that all children regardless of background and circumstance should have access to sport and professional sporting events. That’s why, thanks your generosity, we support community projects, local sports groups and provide full match day experiences for children and young people. 

We are a registered Scottish Charity (SC042477) and report to the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR). You can find out more here.
