Common Goal, the collaborative project endorsed by the Spanish footballer Juan Mata in 2017, has launched a fund in response to the COVID-19 health crisis.

Through this initiative, Common Goal is calling on players and leaders in the football industry and other public or private donors to support the fund, which was created to provide immediate and effective solutions to those who have been hit the hardest by the global pandemic.
The initiative focuses in particular on supporting women, older persons, young people, low-income workers, small- and medium-sized enterprises, the informal sector and vulnerable groups from disadvantaged communities.

You can make a donation to the Common Goal COVID-19 Response Fund at: www.common-goal.org/Donate

Players who want to join Common Goal can do so here: www.common-goal.org/Join/SignUp/Player
