We are regrettably unable to help with financial assistance requests. We already operate a number of our own initiatives aimed at directly benefiting local and global communities that use football as a symbol of hope and integration. Examples include the Financial Assistance Programme for every one of FIFA’s 209 member associations, and Football for Hope schemes across the globe. For more information, please visit our Sustainability section on FIFA.com.
As a basic principle, our Legal Affairs Division is not in a position to reply via e-mail to queries that may have a legal impact. Such enquiries therefore need to be submitted either by fax or post (or by courier) and be signed by the sender.

FIFA is the global guardian and governing body of football, representing and serving 209 national football associations. Our mission is to develop football everywhere and for all, to touch, inspire and unite the world with international events, and to build a better future through the power of the game. We work with our members to protect and strengthen the integrity of the game and to create a solid foundation for the future health of football. We redistribute the financial success of the FIFA World Cup™ so that everyone can have the chance to play football. FIFA also has a duty to society that goes beyond the game: we are committed to working in as fair and sustainable way as possible.

Most of FIFA’s revenue comes from the FIFA World Cup. The success and sustainability of this event is crucial to FIFA’s work and to the future of global football development. Thanks to its success and popularity, we are able to attract private sector funding to help with the costs of staging all of our international tournaments, of running and governing the global game, and of implementing global football development programmes. In line with the principle of solidarity, we give as much of our revenue as possible back to the global football community in order to create opportunities for all. For more details on FIFA’s finances, please refer to the FIFA Financial Report and the Solidarity Model.
FIFA has adopted a zero-tolerance approach towards match manipulation and started to take significant steps towards ensuring the integrity of football worldwide back in 2005 when FIFA’s subsidiary Early Warning System (EWS) was founded with the aim of monitoring FIFA competitions, identifying any irregular activity on the sports betting market and exposing potential manipulation attempts. In May 2011, the FIFA-INTERPOL initiative was established and recognises the complexity of corruption on a global scale. Its aim is to develop and implement global training, education and prevention measures to overcome illegal betting and match manipulation.
Launched in 2012, the FIFA integrity initiative embraces all 209 member associations and focuses on various aspects, including the five main areas of prevention, detection, intelligence-gathering, investigation and sanctions, and the creation of a FIFA integrity team to analyse and assist member associations and confederations on request and to establish basic structures and processes for fighting match manipulation. This integrated approach aims to cover a range of areas such as legal and disciplinary, security, betting monitoring, and fraud detection and prevention, and involves reviewing policies and procedures, conducting analyses of threats and vulnerability, and assessing the effectiveness of regulations and applicable laws against match manipulation at national and confederation level.
