According to Ms. Sarah Lotus Asare, administrator of the Gym, the mission of Gloves for Africa is to engage with young individuals in underprivileged communities, providing them with the tools and opportunities to succeed.

Gloves for Africa aim to help these young champions become role models and positive influences within their communities.

This initiative is made possible through the generous support of their partners, including @tkoelitegym, @hastings_kickboxing_academy, @lancebox_group , @kenthousing01, and many others who share our vision.

They have brought a collection of boxing gloves that will be distributed to as many young people as possible.
