CASFA (Canada African Soccer Friendship Assoc.)

Our club was pleased to have the founder of CASFA, Mark Anthony Atine-Ayo, as our first speaker of 2008 on January 4th.  Mr. Atine is the founder of this non-profit organization, the goal of which is to use soccer as an instrument of human, economic, health, education, social and peace development.  CASFA partners with schools here in Canada and through its efforts, runs year-round boys and girls soccer leagues with tournaments in five age-groups in Africa.

Mr. Atine was joined by Sherry Dhillon, a student at Brampton Centennial High School, who traveled to Africa to see first-hand how CASFA`s efforts were helping the youth there.
