Please join Never Again Coalition and iACT for an exclusive screening of Not Just Football: from genocide to the World Cup at the fourth annual iACT for Refugees event hosted by Vacasa, to benefit refugee athletes and students in central Africa.
This inspiring documentary is the original story of Darfur United, an all-refugee men’s soccer team co-created by iAct and the refugees on the Chad-Sudan border in Darfur, a forgotten region that experienced “hell on earth.” The documentary chronicles their unbelievable journey from refugee camps to the 2012 Viva World Cup in Iraq, giving them a world stage on which to represent their people—and all refugees.
The women’s team journey has only just begun, but they’re preparing for CONIFA World Cup 2021 and inspiring a generation of girls along the way.
Before the movie, enjoy local wine and beer from Flat Brim Wines and Leikam Brewery and indulge in delicious small bites provided by Stella Taco and dessert from Le Pigeon. You’ll be able to do this, while mingling with Gabriel Stauring, iAct’s Founding Executive Director, and Mark Hodson, Darfur United Head Coach (and others), while browsing our various exciting raffle items, including vacation home rentals, restaurant gift certificates, sporting event tickets, and much, much more.
Get your tickets and join us for an inspiring evening as we share and lift up the voices and stories of the refugees from Darfur, Sudan. We hope to see you there!
