New boxing equipment for promoting sport and social inclusion

Boxing Club Menen, a charity dedicated to young people and the promotion of sport, stands as a beacon of social inclusion in the community. With a membership of 120 individuals representing 15 different nationalities, the club fosters an environment where diversity thrives, and inclusion is celebrated.

Mission and values

The mission of Boxing Club Menen extends beyond the ring. The club is committed to teaching its members the values of discipline, respect, and team spirit—principles that are not only fundamental to the sport but are also crucial in everyday life. Through boxing, members learn to push their limits, both physically and mentally, and develop a strong sense of self-confidence and resilience.

Community and growth

The Boxing Club ensures that people from various backgrounds and age groups can train together. This diverse environment helps to break down barriers and promote mutual understanding and respect among members. The club’s continued growth is a testament to its positive impact on the community, and it is a source of pride for all involved.

Recognizing the importance of this initiative, our organisation has decided to support Boxing Club Menen financially, by contributing to the purchase of new boxing equipment for an amount of EUR 8,000. This investment will help the club to cope with its growing membership and enhance the training experience for all its members.

Financial accessibility

A key aspect of Boxing Club Menen’s commitment to social inclusion is to ensure that financial difficulties do not hinder anyone from participating. The club offers memberships funded by Flemish facilities, such as UitPas, making it possible for those experiencing financial hardship to join and benefit from the training and community spirit the club offers.

Support inclusive sport initiatives

Boxing Club Menen is more than just a place to learn boxing; it is a community where young people are empowered to achieve their potential, strengthen their character, both in sport and in life. By fostering a spirit of discipline, respect, and teamwork, the club is helping to shape a brighter, more inclusive future for all its members. Our support for this initiative is a step towards ensuring that the values and benefits of sport are accessible to everyone, regardless of their financial situation, status or background.
