In 2003, he created the Roger Federer Foundation with a desire to help the needy, especially in Africa and Switzerland.

It is also worth noting that Federer’s foundation has been doing some lovely things, especially for children. Earlier in April, Federer visited the African country Malawi, where he met with the minister of gender. During his visit, he donated around 3000 tablets to help the children with their early education.

It is also worth mentioning that Federer has not played any matches on the tour since losing to Hubert Hurkacz in the quarter-final of last year’s Wimbledon. Since then, he underwent knee surgery, which forced him out of the tour for around a year now. However, he returned to the tennis court with a bunch of kids in Malawi, which was a priceless moment to see for all the kids from the country.
