Football for Friendship

Football for Friendship (Russian: ФУТБОЛ ДЛЯ ДРУЖБЫ) is an annual International Children's Social Programme implemented by the Russian oil conglomerate Gazprom. The programme, along with spinoffs, came to an end in the Western world after Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The programme continues in Russia and some allied States.

Within the framework of the programme, football players at the age of 12 from different countries take part in the annual "Football for Friendship Children's Forum", "Football for Friendship World Championship", and the "International Day of Football and Friendship". The global operator of the programme is AGT Communications Group (Russia).
