💣 The first thing that Inter did after the qualification for the direct elimination race was a special project linked to the orphans that moved the US football fans to the FIFA 2025 World Cup “We want to help them have a better life”

In the electrifying atmosphere of the World Cup for Club Fifa 2025, which was held in the United States, the players of Inter, led by the defender Francesco Acerbi, conquered the heart of the American fans not only for their performance on the field. Between an exhausting calendar and competitive matches, the Italian giants have launched an initiative felt in support of orphaned children in the United States, embodying their commitment to make the difference beyond football. With the slogan “we want to help them have a better life”, Acerbi and his teammates have unleashed a wave of emotion and admiration between the fans, demonstrating the power of sport in promoting the social good.

The World Cup for Club Fifa 2025, scheduled from 14 June to 13 July, brought together 32 elite clubs from all over the world, with Inter that has distinguished itself as one of the most visible teams. Despite a difficult start, including a 1-1 draw against Monterrey on June 17 at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena, California, the Nerazzurri have shown resilience under the guidance of the new coach Cristian Chivu. However, it was their commitment off the pitch that really won the American public. Inspired by the difficulties and personal triumphs of Acerbi, 37 years old surviving cancer and finalist of the Champions League, the team has collaborated with local charity bodies to support the orphaned children of the communities close to the tournament offices.

Acerbi, whose path, from the double victory against Texticles Cancer to Inter’s participation in the exciting season of the Champions League 2024-25, was marked by perseverance, led the project with a personal link with his mission. “I know what it means to face the difficulties and feel alone,” said Acerbi in a press conference after Inter’s match against the Urawa Reds. “These children deserve love, opportunity and the possibility of dreaming. Football has given me a lot, and now we want to return something.” His words hit the mark between the fans, many of whom have praised the initiative on social media, with the X posts that call it “a beautiful reminder of what sport can do”.

The project, launched in collaboration with organizations such as the Children’s Bureau in Los Angeles and the Miami’s His House Children’s Home, focuses on the supply of educational resources, tutoring programs and recreational activities for orphaned children. Inter players, including stars like Lautaro Martinez, Alessandro Bastoni and Kristjan Asllani, have committed themselves to financing scholarships and host football seminars for these children, offering them the opportunity to interact with their heroes. During their stay in Pasadena, the team visited a local orphanage, spending time with children, signing autographs and sharing stories of their experiences. The videos of Martinez who teaches young fans such as pulling punishment and acerbi who laughs with children during a football match have become viral, amplifying the impact of the project.

The American fans, already fascinated by high -risk games of the Club World Cup, have enthusiastically accepted Inter’s commitment. At the Rose Bowl, banners were unrolled in the stands with the word “Thanks, Inter, for attention” and “Army of Acerbi”, testifying to the emotional bond that was created between the team and the local community. “I came to see football, but I am inspired by what these players are doing for children who need it most,” said Maria Gonzalez, residing in Los Angeles and always football fan. “Now it’s more than a game.”

The initiative is also in line with the wider commitment of Inter for social responsibility, a value rooted in the 117 years of the club history. Despite the demanding tournament calendar, which includes an imminent clash with River Plate, the players continued to devote themselves to the cause. Chivu, at his coach’s debut, underlined the importance of using the football platform to do good. “We are here to compete, but also to demonstrate that football can unite and raise everyone’s fate,” he said. The club also undertook to continue the project even after the end of the tournament, with the intention of establishing a long -term fund for orphaned children in the United States.

While Inter face the World Cup for FIFA Club, its field battles are just a part of the story. Acerbi and his companions have remembered the world that the true power of football lies in his ability to inspire hope and change lives. For orphaned children touched by this project, and for the American fans moved by their compassion, the legacy of Inter in 2025 will be defined not only by the goals scored, but also by the future they have helped to illuminate. With every step, contrast and smile shared with a child, the Nerazzurri are showing that the nice game can be a force for a better world.
