Kuala Lumpur: The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Social Responsibility Committee met on Thursday at the AFC House to decide on several issues related to the AFC’s growing number of social responsibility projects.
The committee discussed recent developments of the AFC Dream Asia Foundation and approved the funding earmarked for social responsibility via the 2017 AFC Champions League final matches. Every year, five percent of the prize money given to the finalist clubs is allocated to social responsibility, as defined in the competition regulations.
The committee agreed that the Member Associations of last year’s finalists Urawa Red Diamonds (Japan FA) and Al Hilal SFC (Saudi Arabian Football Federation) will propose tailored activities to be organised via this funding, with the involvement of the clubs. The AFC will also initiate partnerships with local NGOs to ensure programme continuity.
