Help Gio Defeat His Injuries

Yesterday morning, during a soccer game for his older brother, 7 year old Gio Leon ran after a ball into the street and was struck by a vehicle. In true Chicago Lion fashion, the parents quickly acted to help save Gio’s life. Thanks to everyone involved, he is stable and fighting hard to recover from his injuries.

Gio is not only the beloved son of Savino (our coach) and Cristina, he is ALL of ours. As a team and soccer family, we will stand by them to help with whatever we can. No one has time to worry about medical expenses when the focus and attention need to be 100% on the full healing of your child. So we are asking for donations from anyone who would like to help. And even if you cannot help monetarily, please help spiritually by continuing to pray for Gio and his family.

Gio is a STRONG fighter and FIERCE competitor. He is in the biggest match of his life and we know he will do everything he can to WIN this because he has the best of the best rooting for him. Let’s Go, #29!⚽️ #GioStrong
