In the summer of 2005, the International Ski Federation and Right To Play entered into an agreement which objectives read as follows:

“FIS and Right To Play seek to cooperate to encourage the use of sport and play to support mutual goals of child and community development and health.”

“FIS and Right To Play will work together to promote Sport for Development among the public at large, and, more particularly, within the sporting world; to collaborate in the field to increase the use as a programming tool to the benefit of children around the world; and to promote Right To Play and its Red Ball Campaign.”

FIS was the first international sport federation to sign such an agreement with Right To Play. This gives Right To Play a fantastic arena to promote the work of the organisation. Right To Play has entered into a partnership with several organisers of FIS World Cup Events, giving the organisation the possibility to have a presence at races and to use the events for fund-raising purposes.

Right To Play wants to thank their partners in skiing. Through their generosity, we can change the lives of children for the better.

Right To Play is an international humanitarian organization that uses specifically-designed sport and play programs to foster the healthy physical, social and emotional development of children and empower the world's most disadvantaged communities to become stronger and more peaceful.

Partnering with the UN and other agencies, Right To Play is committed to enabling the most vulnerable populations, including refugees, former child combatants and children at risk or orphaned by HIV/AIDS, to overcome the cycle of war, poverty and disease.
