Scort Foundation

The Scort Foundation is a non-profit, politically and religiously independent operating foundation based in Basel, Switzerland. In 2007 Scort Foundation established The Football Club Social Alliance (FCSA). FC Basel 1893, SV Werder Bremen, Bayer 04 Leverkusen, FK Austria Wien, FC Schalke 04 and 1. FSV Mainz 05 are the official partner clubs of the FCSA. Further clubs like Tottenham Hotspur FC, Liverpool FC and FC Barcelona supported selected projects. The Alliance's focus is for the good of children and youths in difficult living conditions, and for the promotion of integration, peace building and development initiatives. Together we educate young people as qualified football coaches and role models for disadvantaged children and by doing this inspire them to become socially engaged and proactive leaders in their communities.
