The Chennaiyin Football Club Foundation was established in 2019 as the corporate social responsibility (CSR) arm of the two-time Indian Super League champion, Chennaiyin Football Club. Based in Mumbai and operating across Tamil Nadu and beyond, we believe football is more than a game—it's a powerful catalyst for social change.
Our mission is to harness the unifying power of football to address critical social issues, focusing on education, health, gender equality, and community cohesion. We envision an India where every child, regardless of background, has the opportunity to thrive both on and off the pitch.
Registered with the Registrar of Companies, Mumbai (CIN: U92490MH2019NPL331159), we operate with transparency, accountability, and a deep commitment to measurable impact. Our programs are designed in alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
