Quest Global has joined forces with the TSS Foundation to roll out a six-year initiative focused on transforming the lives of students from tribal and underserved communities in India. The partnership, under the “Empowering Futures through Sport and Education” program, provides access to academic education and professional football training, aiming to nurture talent while promoting holistic development.
Through this collaboration, selected students from remote areas will receive full support to pursue their education at The Sports School (TSS) in Bengaluru. The program includes academic guidance and a structured football training curriculum led by licensed youth coaches from Indian Super League team Bengaluru FC. This dual focus on learning and sport equips students with the tools they need to thrive personally and professionally.
The initiative reflects Quest Global’s broader goal of advancing inclusive growth and creating lasting opportunities for communities in need. By combining education with sports, the company seeks to make a meaningful social impact that goes beyond classroom learning and fosters confidence, discipline, and resilience among young participants.
“This initiative reflects our purpose of building a better tomorrow,” said Cheryl Rodness, Global Head of Brand at Quest Global. “We are proud to support this integrated approach where both education and professional sports training help shape well-rounded individuals. Our partnership with BFC and TSS Foundation allows us to invest in India’s youth in a truly impactful way.”
UV Sankar, Director of the TSS Foundation, added, “Our vision is to empower children to rise above their circumstances. Working alongside Quest Global and Bengaluru FC strengthens our ability to reach more students and offer them real pathways to success through both academics and sports mentorship.”
Darren Caldeira, Director of Football at Bengaluru FC, emphasized the significance of such collaborations: “Our work with The Sports School has produced players for state and national teams. We’re excited to contribute to this initiative by providing coaching and development opportunities that can shape the future of Indian football.” The program stands as a testament to the power of education and sport in unlocking potential and creating opportunities for young people who might otherwise be left behind.
