Campaign details

Partial Distribution of Donation

The Footura "Yoppee App" campaign has ended, and the beneficiary requested partial distribution of funds. The remaining funds will remain on the BTC address of the campaign with a new campaign being launched by Footura. The full amount of exchanged funds (after the exchange and bank transfer fees) has been distributed to the beneficiary. Bithope's 5% will be withheld when the second campaign has ended. Related documentation will become downloadable soon.

What the Funds Will be Spent On?

Association Footura has created a unique application, at least for the Bulgarian market - the YOPPEE mobile application, aimed at informing/empowering youth and amateur athletes. It was active through a reputable international provider (Appypie) from March 2019 to March 2022, successfully covering a period of uncertainty and lack of opportunities related to the COVID crisis. At its peak, the application had over 500 registered active users, most of whom were from Bulgaria but not only.

In parallel, a Facebook page with the same name (with nearly 800 followers at the moment) was created to provide an additional channel for awareness, and this page has not ceased to exist and broadcast useful information. In March 2024, a Viber channel with the same name and goals was also created, and in September 2024, the mobile application itself was rebuilt - through the modern and optimized lightweight option for desktop and mobile devices (through another renowned international provider Jotform). Our team is currently finalizing the app, and we will soon start a promotional campaign. It can be viewed and downloaded from here.

Reviving the app has been our goal since it was discontinued in 2022 - for reasons beyond our control, and now we hope to have the chance to develop it for many times longer. Accordingly, this is not our goal in itself, but our idea is to be as useful as possible to young people on the one hand - with opportunities for development in every field, and also to amateur athletes, allowing them to know where and how they can play their favorite sport, where and how they can get involved in the "Sports with a Cause" model, for which we are actively working, how to live more actively and healthily, etc.

The funds we collected from our Bithope campaign will cover the existence of the YOPPPEE application for a ten-year period, together with accompanying activities for its promotion such as: online campaigns and online advertising campaigns, printed advertising information materials, participation in events promoting it, support of parallel information channels, etc. We had previously announced the sum of 3,675 euros for the development of this project of ours, and at the end of our campaign in Bithope, the amount collected exceeded our initial goal - for which we want to thank all donors! At the moment, we set 6,500 euros collected from a campaign as a budget for the overall development of the application in the next 10 years, which of course includes its purely technical development and maintenance, its filling with useful and interesting information to the two target groups indicated, promotion activities and establishing it as a reliable source for information and benefits.The remaining amount that was collected through this campaign, we will redirect it to the administrative activity of the association (which excludes salaries, bonuses or any other payments to employees, members), to existing activities and projects (covering the basic requirements of the programs) , to modernize our material and technical base (based on the lowest price and promotional offers), and above all to a new project that we will soon upload to the Bithope platform, to which part of the already collected support for the project for the YOPPEE mobile app will be transferred!

Overall description

Yoppee is a mobile app that is completely free to use and puts youth and sports opportunities together: available for all people from all countries and all ages. By providing the youths with new knowledge, information, capabilities, opportunities, and venues to apply their skills, Footura will support their sustainable social participation. The Footura team believes that social justice is an important feature of developed societies and continues to develop the best practices in their fields of activity. Relying on the effective practices we have developed throughout the years, as well as the experience gained by working with partner organizations, we want to create a direct positive opportunity to reach young people, people of active age, and vulnerable people.

About the Footura Association

FOOTURA’s main objectives are the development and promotion of sport as a tool for positive social impact. Our special target groups are youth and disadvantaged people, this is why we promote amateur and college sport in order to help these people be active and see the benefits of a healthy lifestyle – because we in Footura believe that everyone deserves to have a healthy and happy life. Through our rich experience and expertise, we go far beyond the framework of a sports organization and offer much broader public impact-related not only to sports but also to various other spheres.

Another primary goal of Footura is to help young people to realize their sports, educational, and life (personal) potential. Footura combines several socially significant features in a unique way  - sport and healthy lifestyle, sport and science, sport and charity, sports and youth, sport, and the UN SDG. For us, it is important that, although very difficult, we have development and success in each of these features, due to a lot of labor and persistence, demonstrating that we can improve society.
