FOUNDER

The Huracan Foundation’s unique history is largely down to the tenacity and ingenuity of its founder, Henry May. Henry was a Teach First participant in 2009, and his work in a challenging school in South London was the trigger for seeing how football can change the direction of children’s lives.

Combined with the connections he had made with Club Atlético Huracán in Argentina, Henry saw the potential impact of delivering change by creating The Huracan Foundation.
