Football is undoubtedly an international language that is spoken by millions all over the world, so what better platform for spreading awareness and raising money for those in need.

Football Cares has been set up by AS Roma to bring the international football community together to raise urgently needed funds to address the escalating global refugee crisis.

Roma, Inter Milan, Fiorentina, Sampdoria, Bologna, Hellas Verona, Empoli, Torino, Cagliari and MLS sides Orlando City, LA Galaxy and Columbus Crew are already supporting Football Cares and clubs all over the world and fans everywhere are invited to help make a difference by donating today.

According to the United Nations, almost 60 million people have been driven out of their homes by persecution and war. Thousands of refugees, many of them children, are dying trying to reach safer land.

We’re asking every football club and football fan to put sporting rivalries aside and unite for Football Cares so we can save lives, ease suffering and let the children play again.

The money raised will be divided amongst the following four charities that are on the ground helping the refugees: UNHCR, Save The Children, International Rescue Committee and the Red Cross.
