Happy Birthday to the 2023 Socrates Award Winner, Vinícius Jr.! 🎉
Today, we celebrate not just an exceptional footballer, but also a passionate advocate for social change — Happy Birthday to Vinícius Júnior, the 2023 Socrates Award winner!
At just 24, Viní Jr. has already made his mark on the pitch with dazzling performances for Real Madrid and the Brazil national team. But what sets him apart is his commitment off the field. His tireless fight against racism in football and his efforts to uplift underprivileged communities in Brazil earned him the prestigious Socrates Award, which honors players using their influence to drive positive social impact.
Vinícius Jr. embodies what it means to be a role model — using his voice, his story, and his success to speak out against injustice and stand up for what’s right.
Here’s to more goals, more victories, and more impact — on and off the field.
Feliz aniversário, Vini! 🖤💛💚
