London Irish foundation are delighted to have created the partnership with [Goal 17](https://www.goal17.global/).

During the discussions with Fran Boorman CEO of Goal 17, it became clear that both organisations were striving for the same objectives.

The aim at Goal 17 is to pioneer new and sustainable income streams for the third sector, through traded activities. Working closely with a selected group of charities they advised that they want to help close the gaps in society and see real social change:

- Bringing the two groups together helps close the gaps in society and break down barriers.
- We see a genuine shift in attitude towards social mobility.
- Opportunities for our charity partners to engage their existing supporters at a deeper more emotional level through the hands-on experience.

“

I believe that our partnership with Goal 17 using their experience in delivering social gains from effective mentoring, our joint focus on inspiring people through sport, and our collective desire to create social impact makes our partnership exciting". - Andy Keast
