Mr. World Francisco Escobar Launched Foundation in Colombia
The current Mr. World Francisco Escobar was recently in his hometown of Cali, launching his “Path of Champions” foundation helping under privileged children in the region with the power of sport.
The weekend began with an early morning press conference in the capital of Bogata, with Francisco joined by Miss & Mr World CEO Julia Morley and Miss World Megan Young. During this conference Francisco outlined the aims of his project and the success he has had in his time as Mr World.
In the afternoon, the team travelled on to Cali for the inaugural benefit show to launch the ‘Path of Champions Foundation’. A fundraiser held at Francisco’s old school the benefit gig raised money to help keep the youth of the region on the right track, and funnel their energies into positive channels, away from dangerous activities and lifestyles.
“I was born there and so I know the problems of my city and my country, but we are much more than that, much more than poverty, much more than drug trafficking,” Said Francisco when talking about the aims of his project.
He continued, reaffirming that the main goal of the project was to promote the proper use of leisure time of children living in the District of Aguablanca Cali.
Way to go, Mr World! We wish you the best of luck!!
Escobar’s successor will be elected on June 15th, in England.
