Maradona Foundation

Legends Live Forever

The Maradona Foundation was created to honour the life and memory of Diego Maradona. The foundation is on a mission to increase social capital and prosperity around the world with the help of people who share our principles and values. We strive to help our partners in providing critial services for those impacted and support them in building a more inclusive world. A world in which genius, rebelliousness, diversity, non-conformity and challenging the status quo and playing by the rules are celebrated and honoured.
