Deadline: 29-Sep-21
The Dream Building Fund powered by Global Sports Development (GSD) is a biennial call for projects aiming to support initiatives that solve problems within their communities.
The ITTF Foundation and its partner The Foundation of Global Sports Development (GSD) provide financial and knowledge support to change makers, that wish to use table tennis as a tool to improve an aspect of human welfare in their local reality.
