Asamoah Gyan, the former captain of the Senior National Team of Ghana (Black Stars), has expressly stated that he feels a strong desire to give back to the nation. He stressed, “I feel strongly about giving back to the nation.”
Below is the details on Asamoah Gyan’s strong desire and vision for the youth:
“As a proud Ghanaian deeply connected to our people, I feel a strong responsibility to give back to the community that shaped me. Football has taken me to the world’s biggest stages, but it’s the values I learned here – resilience, discipline, and unity – that have made me who I am. My vision is to empower the youth of Ghana and Africa through sports and philanthropy.
This is not about politics; I am fully independent of political influence. This is about our children, our communities, and our continent. Together, with the support of international organizations, royal families, and philanthropic partners, we can create lasting change that empowers our youth to build the future they deserve.
Sports saved me and gave me purpose. Its power goes beyond winning or losing – it’s about overcoming setbacks, pushing through challenges, and believing in dreams. I want every young person, no matter their background, to have that same opportunity to realize their greatness.
Through the Asamoah Gyan Foundation, the Moah Green Foundation, and the All-Regional Games, we will build sports academies, training centers, and mentorship programs that nurture young talent in all sports. More than that, we’ll emphasize education, character, and life skills to prepare our youth for success beyond the field.
This mission is about hope and opening doors for those who feel left behind, giving them the belief that their dreams are possible. By promoting the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) – focusing on education, health, and equality – we can ensure that every young person has the chance to thrive.
I believe sports can unite and inspire us in powerful ways. Together, we can harness that power to uplift the next generation and create a brighter future for Ghana and Africa.”
