Asics has announced an extension of its partnership with Right To Play, an international non-profit organization that helps vulnerable children overcome the effects of war, poverty and disease through play. Asics will now support Right To Play programs in East Africa (Uganda, Burundi, Mozambique and Tanzania). Since launching their partnership in 2018, Asics and Right To Play collaborated on sport-focused activities for Syrian refugees in Lebanon, supporting more than 7,000 people and training 115 coaches. The extended partnership agreement will support Right To Play’s continued public programs for the children of East Africa, a region affected by multiple social issues. The programs provide opportunities and equipment for play and sports, peace education and gender equality development.
