Hi! We're KLABU 👋🏼 Our name means ‘club’ in Swahili; we’re the cross-border sports club changing the playing field for refugees. We build clubhouses where refugees can find joy, pride and hope through sports, no matter the circumstances. Each clubhouse has its own unique KLABU sportswear available to supporters worldwide who want to play their part. The goal: to build the world’s biggest sports club and support millions of refugees on their way to a better future. Read more and join the KLABU at klabu.org. Or contact us at info@klabu.org 🥇

Since the integration of televisions and solar power into KLABU clubhouses, watching sports matches and movies has become a community highlight! 🇧🇷 For example in Boa Vista, Brazil, where the first edition of the regular movie nights took place at the clubhouse. 🇳🇱 In Ter Apel, where unaccompanied minors get to know the Netherlands through the Dutch Eredivisie. 🇲🇷 Or the M’bera refugee camp in Mauritania, where over hundred community members came together to watch Real Madrid - Barcelona. 🇬🇷 And earlier this year, where the community in Lesvos, Greece, watched Champions League together. Big thanks to our partner TPV Cares / TP Vision for supplying all our KLABU clubhouses with Philips televisions and Philips music systems that ensure they are welcoming and vibrant community spaces! #jointheklabu to change the playing field for refugees

Since KLABU’s very beginning in 2019, we’ve been finding uplifting ways to get everyone involved in our mission to change the playing field for refugees. One idea that became a big hit is our collection of teamwear shirts! These shirts are perfect for teams and companies, customisable with your logo, name and number. Until now, there were 8 shirt colours to choose from, and today we’re thrilled to announce the addition of 5 fresh colours 🤩 We hope you love them as much as we do! If your team or company wants to join KLABU, we’d love to hear from you. Find out more at www.klabu.org/teamwear or email us at teamwear@klabu.org. Order now to ensure delivery before the end of December - but don’t wait too long! A huge thank you to team State of Football for standing by our side since day one. Without you, this teamwear journey wouldn’t have been possible. #jointheklabu
