Soccer / Football

Many thanks to the Penns Valley American Youth Soccer Association for their donation of soccer balls for Rwanda, football as it is called in Rwanda.

Carol Baney received word that there were soccer balls available. New soccer balls. So off we went to meet board members and some of the soccer players to pick up the balls.

Coach Jeff Denger said soccer is a great sport for kids of all ages. It gives kids the opportunity to learn to cope with wins and losses and encourages kids to improve and become successful. Board members were thrilled to know the soccer balls would go somewhere where they are really needed.

Zach said, "I think it is good to give as they don't have as much as we do." Ty shared, "I think they will be happy!"

So thank you to the board and the kids for gathering the balls and making such a generous donation. Some went with us in March with more going in June.
