SportPesa, the Kenyan operator of online sports betting and a partner of Arsenal FC (Premier League), offered their box at the Emirates Stadium to an association for children with Down syndrome, supported by the Foundation of the club, for the derby against Tottenham Hotspur FC (1-1, Matchday 11 of 2016-17 Premier League), on 06/11/2016.

The association "Actone ArtsBase", a dance troupe and theatre for people with disabilities, is funded by the Arsenal FC Foundation. The invited children are members of the Arsenal Football Down Syndrome Project, a project of the Foundation that allows children and adults with trisomy 21 (the most common form of Down syndrome) to participate in football activities, sometimes with Arsenal players.

"Huge thanks is due to SportPesa for offering these young people the chance to enjoy a very special game in this season's footballing calendar," stated the North London club on 07/11/2016.
