Our mission
The mission of the foundation is to create an environment in which Curacao youth are motivated to improve their skills in both sports and learning. We want to achieve this by on the one hand giving the children tools to improve their sports skills, while on the other hand attention is paid to tutoring and improving their school performance. In this way we hope to realize opportunities for the children that would otherwise not be there. We strive to make this accessible to children from all walks of life, regardless of their race, income, gender or the teams they play for.

2nd edition Churandy Martina Foundation Golf Tournament at Blue Bay was a great success!
The entire tournament was dedicated to raising funds for the Churandy Martina Foundation, which dedicates itself to sports and education for the youth of Curacao. Recently, the foundation was able to provide plenty of equipment for the CAB, Curacao Athletics Association. The Churandy Martina Foundation has also purchased two buses, including sports equipment, with which to visit schools to give sports lessons at schools where few or no sports lessons are given.

“It takes a village to raise a child”
In August 2022, the Churandy Martina Foundation made its first donation to the FFAPM. The FFAPM (Fundashon Formashon Awe Progreso Mañan) is a foundation that has an institute under its supervision that supports children, young people and their families.
This guidance is both cognitive and social-emotional. Activities offered there are homework policy, music lessons and cultural and artistic education.
