What about Inter Milan’s CSR strategy?

Inter Campus is a Corporate Social Responsibility program that supports social, religious, racial equality worldwide, with specific focus on Children’s Rights. Most evident expression of FC Internazionale Milano founding values, ethics and belief in brotherhood, since 1997 Inter Campus formalizes long-term and flexible cooperation agreements with reliable NGO’s and Institutions around the world.  Inter Campus supports their social programs in favour of needy children by adding the soccer activity as an educational tool. Inter Campus provides adults with technical formation, gives back children their Right to Play and fosters the development of communities, by tackling specific social challenges according to regional pecularities and needs.

Inter Campus promotes play as a right for every single child. Nowadays Inter Campus works in 29 countries and it constantly involves 10’000 children (boys and girls) from 6 to 13 years old, around 200 local educators and volunteers. Inter Campus socially improves the communities it works with, giving children the possibility to play, develop their own personality, be integrated and participate proactively in the society they live in. Every year each child participating in Inter Campus is given the official black and blue jersey, a symbol of belonging to the Inter family.

Since Inter Campus’ intervention is an ongoing process, continuity is one of the key success factors of the programme: only through time it is possible to transfer substantial value. The creation of steady programmes through time with constant monitoring and periodical updates is a pillar, together with the trasversal diffusion, beyond governments and religions.
