Thanks to all of our partners, donors & advisors for helping children play!

It is amazing to see the power of sport & the power of play uproot people & get them to move across the world to help children play.

This partner is from Belgium but works with kids in South Africa. They are moving full time to South Africa in a few months.

Here is a short update on their work:

We used the donation from Ball Project for our sport camp we set up in South Africa in the township of Tikwana (This is in the Free state province).

We set up a sport camp every year with limited resources, to get the kids off the streets but also encourage, teach and mentor them and just give them an amazing time.

We are also permanently there in a few months and will continue to use the soccer balls, volleyballs and cones we bought then to set up sports programs throughout the year.

Ball Project is thankful for our partners in South Africa, Africa & around the world working (& playing) to help children play.

Here is a wonderful update from Nou Hope, one of our partners in Haiti:

We were able to purchase two of the One World Futbols (one for each the village of LaMare and Terre-Salei’s futbol teams).

We also purchased two other regular soccer balls for the villages (see photo from Sunday’s futbol match with ball being used) along with some pump needles that were given to the coaches of the two teams.

We then dispersed funds to our partners so they could purchase two more game quality balls in country and then hire locals (from the village of Terre-Salei) to make 200-250 jump ropes to be distributed to several schools in the area.
