Uniting the football community, for good
Common Goal aims to inspire everyone in football to collaborate towards an equal and sustainable future for all
With more than three billion fans, football is the largest social phenomenon on the planet.
Common Goal is rooted in the belief that the world’s most popular sport is one of the few cultural forces strong enough to help shift society towards a more sustainable and equitable future for all. We want to maximise the game’s contribution to people and planet by forging a lasting connection between football as a business and football as a catalyst for social transformation.We believe that achieving long-lasting change requires collaboration. That’s why we are building a movement that creates opportunities for every stakeholder in football to participate.
We mobilise the football industry to pledge a minimum of 1% of all revenues to drive progress towards the Global Goals. And we team up with high-impact community organisations to reshape our society into an equal playing field for all.
