Building a Brighter Future for Every Child
Shining Sports Organization (SSO) is a community and youth-driven organization located in Kinondoni District, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. We use sports to empower and inspire children and youth, providing them with opportunities they deserve.
Founded with a vision to transform lives, SSO voluntarily coaches around 500 kids aged 8 to 18. On weekdays, we train children from local schools, providing fun and engaging after-school activities that go beyond the playing field — including English, computer literacy, robotics, and AI education.
