Ghetto Kids Donate Shakira’s Signed FIFA World Cup Ball to Uganda Museum

Fresh from making history at the FIFA World Cup Final halftime show, Ghetto Kids have made another remarkable decision.

The celebrated dance group has announced it will donate a signed official 2026 FIFA World Cup ball, gifted to them by global superstar Shakira, to the Uganda Museum.

The move means one of the biggest souvenirs from their unforgettable World Cup experience will not remain in private hands but will instead become part of Uganda’s history.

Taking to Instagram, Ghetto Kids thanked Shakira for the special gift and revealed that they wanted every Ugandan to share in the milestone by placing the ball in the Uganda Museum.

Thank you, Shakira, for this wonderful ball. This is for us and for all Ugandans. We will take it to the museum for us to remember this great moment as we performed at the first-ever FIFA World Cup Halftime Show.

The dancers received the signed official 2026 FIFA World Cup ball after performing alongside Shakira and Burna Boy during the first-ever FIFA World Cup Final halftime show, a spectacle watched by millions around the world.

Rather than keeping the rare gift as a personal souvenir, Ghetto Kids chose to preserve it for the country, allowing future generations to remember the moment Uganda stepped onto one of the world’s biggest entertainment stages.
