Ganémosle a la Calle

What Ganémosle a la Calle does

Ganémosle a la Calle is a Chilean nonprofit foundation (Fundación Ganémosle a la Calle, legally formerly Fundación Federico Carvallo Pérez) founded in 2013 in memory of Federico Carvallo Pérez to provide free sports programming to children and youth aged 5-18 in vulnerable sectors. The foundation operates 12 multi-sport centers and its own courts in 10 neighborhoods across 9 communes spanning the Santiago Metropolitan, Valparaíso, and O'Higgins regions, delivering football, basketball, dance, and pre-sports workshops to over 800 children daily. Each center is staffed by physical education professors and a psychosocial support team that integrates families and the broader community, and several sites occupy public spaces previously abandoned and recovered through collaborative neighborhood work.

The foundation has no proprietary technology platform; its operations rely on standard tools (Microsoft Forms for participant registration, donando.cl for online donations) combined with a documented methodology that pairs sport with psychosocial accompaniment. Its revenue model is donation-driven: individual contributions via the donando.cl portal, annual fundraising campaigns (Colecta 2026), and corporate sponsorship through sporting events such as the Morales & Besa Interestudios Golf Championship and the foundation's inaugural Padel Championship. Corporate collaborators include EY Chile, GTD, Carozzi, Multiaceros, Aza Aceros, Agrícola Covadonga, Gatorade, and others; institutional partners include multiple municipalities, the Ministry of Sport, and the Human Rights Secretariat.

The foundation is governed by a Board of Directors chaired by Sebastián Guerrero, with María Gracia Carvallo as Founder and Ignacio Bellolio as Executive Director. Its FECU Social 2024 reports 985 participants and 897 volunteers. The foundation has no app, no API, and no AI capabilities; its intellectual property is limited to its brand, methodology, and nearly 15 years of operational track record.
