Text description provided by the architects. The Homeless World Cup Legacy Center in Santa Cruz, Brazil is a prototype facility utilizing football as a tool for empowerment and social change for women and youth. With the Homeless World Cup arriving in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in fall 2010, Architecture for Humanity, Homeless World Cup, and Nike teamed up with local partners Organização Civil de Ação Social (OCAS), and Instituto Bola Pra Frente (BPF) to establish a Legacy Center that would implement the Homeless World Cup influence beyond the week-long Tournament and Leadership Conference.
