Soccer 4 All |
The Soccer 4 All program is a youth soccer uniform and
equipment donation program whereby uniforms and
equipment are donated and collected then resorted to
create matching team sets for children playing soccer
all over the world. A team set consists of 14 matching
jerseys of various youth sizes, 14 matching shorts,
socks, 14 pairs of assorted sized cleats, a goalie
shirt, and ball. These team sets are then hand delivered
to youth soccer teams in countries such as Mexico,
Central and South America, and Africa as well as to Bay
Area Boys and Girls clubs of America.
Hundreds
of team sets have been delivered over the past 5 years.
Church and school youth groups, Rotarians, as well as
individual families traveling to remote areas all over
the world, include duffle bags filled with the team sets
along with their regular luggage. Hand delivering these
sets is the only way to ensure that the children receive
the uniforms and
equipment. The joy and delight on the faces of the
children as they put a uniform for the first time in
their lives is priceless.
For information about donations or delivering team sets,
please call 925-254-0800. |
