Africa, a pool of champions

Carlos Takam Foundation (CTF)

Founded in 2023 in Kigali, Rwanda, the Carlos Takam Foundation (CTF) is a dedicated organization committed to empowering African youth through Sport, Education, and the promotion of Peace. Registered as a mixed foundation in the Rwanda Development Board (RDB), it combines business activity with social impact, while maintaining great flexibility in its operations.

Through his Foundation, Carlos Takam shares the values that have guided him throughout more than 20 years in the boxing rings of the world: respect, humility, discipline, self-improvement, courage, and determination. Convinced that boxing can be a powerful driver of social transformation, he is committed to making it a source of hope and success for African youth.

The Foundation leads an ambitious project: the creation of socially oriented sports-and-education academies, where young talents are supported in their athletic journey while benefiting from comprehensive academic, medical, psychological, and social support.

Beyond the ring, the CTF also develops professional training programs to foster integration into the job market. Competitions, gala dinners, fundraising events, and knowledge-sharing forums complete its initiatives, making boxing a true tool for empowerment, education, and global recognition, serving a youth full of potential.
