Prosper has always been a voluntary trainer for children in dance and sport. Two street soccer tournaments have been organized in Lomé, Togo by Prosper Koami Gbetoho, who now lives in The Netherlands since January, 2008. Prosper organized these tournaments in October, 2008, and September, 2009, during his visits to his homeland in Togo. He did this in his own time and with his own small budget as a private person. As a result, he founded Elayi Foundation on December 16, 2009.

Prosper Koami Gbetoho's Biography
The founder and President of Elayi foundation is Prosper Koami Gbetoho. Prosper grew up in Lomé, Togo. Prosper and his brothers and sisters had a talent for dancing and acrobatics and were street performers. One day somebody gave him a chance to become a professional dancer. This gave Prosper the opportunity to dance and to go to school. Prosper knows from his own experiences how important it is to give others a chance (to be a bridge builder). Prosper decided already at that time that he wanted to do the same for others in the future. The choice for activities and sport was a logical one after his career of dancing and of training children in dance and sport. The ‘work’ of the foundation is based on own life experiences from Prosper.
