Champions in Action connects the disadvantaged youth of Guatemala to mentors through premier sports camps.

The goal is to establish a long-term mentoring relationship that will help set the youth on a better path with a brighter future.

We have held five camps, with nearly 500 youth from the most dangerous zones of Guatemala City being connected to mentors.

To find out more about the organization, read the What We Do and Why Soccer? sections. And of course, be sure and read the Stories about lives being changed forever.


We are currently looking for volunteers in the U.S. and in Guatemala. If you're interested, please contact us at:
