Let’s save football                                             “Working towards a transparent and violence-free football”

Our main objective is to contribute towards change within the football citizenry, offering a meeting point for all club members (socios) and supporters, regardless of jerseys or league division, from where to report all violent or corrupt behaviour surrounding the game. We will stand by those who for any given reason don’t feel at ease with informing the authorities. Individual effort, though noble and exemplary, has been proven ineffective. For there to be true, profound and lasting change, football-loving people must come together and act collectively. Football should only be a sport!!! Never hesitate! Every single illegal action must be reported to the authorities! We are here to support you. We truly hope Salvemos al Futbol is some day deemed unnecessary and folds. It would mean that: Everybody feels safe in a stadium. Courts are just, and impunity a memory. Corrupt and violent behaviour has been eradicated from our game. Police forces developed effective crow control skills. The president of the Asociacion del Futbol Argentino assumed responsibility and behaves in an exemplary manner.  Until then Salvemos al Futbol will keep on growing and working hard for all this to happen!!!

September, 2009 It is a pleasure to inform you that this month Salvemos al Fútbol has its third anniversary and we have taken yet another step in the development of our organization.

In situations like ours there are no single achievements can exist with the efforts of just one person. Teamwork is crucial and for that, once again, we would like to take this opportunity to recognize and thank everyone who has helped in our fight.

Appealing to your goodwill, we would like to acknowledge that we have opened a bank account, so if you wish to express your desire to help, you can now do so in the form of a donation.

Salvemos al Fútbol started as a non-profit organization and will continue as such. However, it we cannot escape the fact that with every activity which we undertake more and more resources are needed. This organization lacks the financial support it needs, in order for it not to be solely supported by those who direct it. With that in mind, we invite you to make any donation that you can.

We are happy to help with any questions or concerns that you might have. 

Donations:

Account type: (Cuenta corriente especial en pesos) Nº 0120858583  In the name of Salvemos al Futbol Asociación Civil (C.B.U 01100129/40001208585830 ) ( located at the corresponding bank branch of the Bank of the Nation of Argentina. (correspondiente a la Sucursal 050 -Congreso del Banco de la Nación Argentina.)

Once you have made a deposit, please contact us at info@salvemosalfutbol.org with the date and number of the transaction so that we can put it on record.

The information that you send us allows us to register your support and to send you the corresponding receipt.

If you would like to make the donation in person, you can come to our offices by calling  011-4953-4606 to make an appointment.

Thank you so much for your support.
