Send My Friend to School 2010

72 MILLION CHILDREN ARE OUT OF SCHOOL

Nearly half of these live in Africa.

World leaders have promised education for all in just five years time. With the World Cup finals in South Africa next June top footballers, such as Gary Lineker and Thierry Henry, are supporting the call for 1GOAL – a renewed global commitment to get every child into school.

• Send My Friend To School's theme for 2010 is '1GOAL' to link in with the World Cup in South Africa
• Send My Friend will be held during the World Cup, 11th June - 11th July

Watch out for lots of fun and football-related activities as we spread the word and ask everyone to join in!

Plan is supporting the 1GOAL campaign.

Join us to help make 1GOAL the World Cup legacy.
