One of For One Life’s primary goals is to provide opportunities, especially to young people. In Northeast India, we see passion, we see potential, and we see talent; however, the opportunities are simply not available like they are in many other places in the world.
We are embarking on a long-term plan to develop a 10+-acre, state-of-the-art community center, that will provide those opportunities to the community. Through discernment and conversations with community leaders and those who live in Churachandpur, we feel led to this facility as a way to foster the kind of community development and personal growth that will impact the entire community for generations to come.
Since soccer is such a beloved sport, we will start with an outdoor soccer stadium to hold clinics and trainings, league play and tournaments with regional draw. In subsequent phases, we will add facilities to host a variety of sports games, lessons and tournaments, children’s retreats, conferences and concerts for the entire community.
We are committed to adding to the local economy. As a result, the majority of jobs will be held by locals who will run the facility as well as lead students and host community events. We will also develop plans for the facilities to become financially self-sustaining as much as is possible.
