Mali´s Mo Keita had a standout performance at the prestigious Torneig Junior de l’Hospitalet to close the 2025 year. Keita was one of the leaders for FC Barcelona, which reached the tournament´s semifinals. Keita ended up making the All-Tournament Team´s TOP 5 thanks to his versatility, athleticism, intensity, and positive attitude. Mo is everyone´s favorite teammate and an example for young kids.
Undeniably, the Foundation’s work in Brazzaville in the summer of 2025 was inspired by faith. From all the volunteers who participated in the coordinated effort with the Just For You Foundation, to Serge Ibaka himself, everyone was inspired by the message to give back to the most vulnerable. As Ibaka pointed out, “We wanted to help the people most in need; the families, the mothers, and their babies. The most important thing is that we need to give all the glory to God; it is thanks to him that we are all here”.

La Fondation Serge Ibaka démarre un programme de lutte contre le Covid 19 au Brazzaville en République du Congo.
Ce programme vise à lutter contre les problèmes relatifs à l’accès aux denrées alimentaires, conséquences de cette pandémie qui touche le tissu économique du pays.
La fondation, avec l’aide de la Fondation Burotop Iris, va organiser la distribution de 80 tonnes de nourriture, susceptible d’aider 8000 familles au Brazzaville. Ces lots contiennent du riz, du sucre, du lait, de l’huile, des pâtes, de la nourriture en conserve et d’autres produits.
La première phase de la distribution débutera dans le quartier de Ouenzé avant de continuer dans d’autres zones de la ville. «Mon pays a été très touché par le Coronavirus. Même si nous n’avons pas eu autant d’infections que je ne le craignais, les conséquences économiques ont mis la population dans une situation très difficile et la fondation existe pour aider tout ces gens. Nous avons décidé de lutter contre le problème d’accès aux denrées alimentaires car c’est un besoin primaire et beaucoup de personnes n’arrivent pas à nourrir leurs familles. » commente Serge Ibaka.
La Fondation Serge Ibaka remercie Diana Attye et la Fondation Burotop Iris pour leur implication et leur soutien dans la collecte, l’organisation et la distribution des denrées.
The Serge Ibaka Foundation is starting a Covid 19 relief program in Brazzaville, Republic of Congo. The program is focused on lightening up the food insecurity issues caused by the pandemic’s economic impact in Congo.
The Foundation, with the help of the Fondation Burotop, has sourced and organized 80 tons of food products to be distributed to 8.000 families in Brazzaville. The packages contain rice, sugar, milk, oil, pasta, canned food, and other products.
The first distribution phase will take place in the Ouenzé Neighbourhood before moving to other areas of the city.
“The impact that the coronavirus has had in my country is big. Although infections might have not been as high as expected, the economic consequences have put the population in a difficult position, and the Foundation exists to take action to help them. We decided to focus on food insecurity as it’s the most basic first need and many people are having difficulties to feed their families”, commented Serge Ibaka.
The Serge Ibaka Foundation would like to thank Diana Attye and the Fondation Burotop for their involvement and support in sourcing, organizing, and distributing the products.
