Based in Berlin’s Spandau borough, MitternachtsSport e.V. is a charitable youth project that dovetails sport, sporting role models and social education to impart values such as respect, tolerance and fairness.
We strive to create a society where all children and young people are given the encouragement and opportunities they need to grow up healthy and active, develop as individuals and treat others with respect.
MitternachtsSport e.V. contributes to these Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The SDGs are international goals of the United Nations for a better and more sustainable future.
As an accredited, non-profit youth welfare organization, MitternachtsSport e.V. has been helping young people since 2008. Through our free daily sports, leisure and educational activities, we help Spandau’s adolescents to integrate and participate in society. We get a helping hand from Big Brothers – like pro footballer Jordan Torunarigha who plays for Bundesliga side Hertha BSC Berlin – people who understand what everyday life is like for these kids, having walked in their shoes. Big Brothers are role models who act as a moral compass by exemplifying our key principles: respect, tolerance and fairness. Our educational team comprising full-time staff and volunteers works to build a society where every child and young person receives all the encouragement and opportunities they need to grow up healthy and active. Our formula for change is respect, trust and communication. We believe all young people, irrespective of their origins, cultural background or personal challenges, deserve equal opportunities to grow and reach their full potential. This is what we offer at MitternachtsSport and many take us up on it.
