2009 Down and onto a new year!

Well I can honestly say that 2009 was a record breaking year for us. We started out as a very small organization that hardly nobody knew about to getting donations and emails from people across the world. We are so blessed to have such an amazing support system from all of you guys, you guys are amazing! Some highlights from the year:

-Donated 100 balls to an orphanage in Maisha to be distributed throughout the community
-Teamed up with the Peace Corps to start a soccer program in Meru
-Built 3 new partnerships including a partnership in kenya with a sports equipment company to more effectively collect and distribute goods
-Began paperwork to be a registered 501c3 non profit organization.

Thanks again for all your amazing support!

In the next week we will be posting interview with our two top fundraisers of 2009 along with pictures of the accomplishments! Stayed tuned!

Im excited for what is to come in 2010 and very humbled by all that has been achieved by everyone. Just a few years ago this organization was an idea on paper and now it is changing lives of children. Thank you thank you thank you!

I also must apologize in delays in emails back to people as I have started going back to school and have two jobs I have been pretty busy lately but I am trying my best!
