From Barefoot to Boots: Awer Mabil's Journey from Refugee Camp to Two World Cups

Australian football star Awer Mabil has reflected on his remarkable journey from growing up in a refugee camp to representing Australia at two FIFA World Cups.

Born in the Kakuma Refugee Camp in Kenya to South Sudanese parents, Mabil said his early experiences continue to shape his commitment to giving back to disadvantaged communities.

Remembering the challenges he faced as a child, Mabil said many young people in refugee camps lack access to basic sporting equipment, including football boots. Inspired by his own journey, he launched an initiative to collect used football boots and distribute them to children and young people living in refugee camps.

Mabil said the project aims to provide opportunities for aspiring footballers who may otherwise be unable to participate in the sport they love.

His story is one of resilience and determination from playing football barefoot in a refugee camp to wearing the green and gold on the world's biggest stage. Through his charitable efforts, Mabil continues to use his success to support the next generation of young refugees and help them pursue their dreams
