Futbol Love – Help Me Buy Balls for Underprivileged Kids

I love giving back. I've always dreamed of organizing a fundraiser to buy soccer balls for underprivileged youth. I’m raising money and will personally deliver the balls, hoping to make a meaningful impact on each child’s day. Every ball will carry love, joy, and positive energy—not just to the recipients, but to everyone supporting this effort. Each moment of this journey will be captured on film. Please join me in making a lasting impact on the lives of these young players, as we celebrate them and the beautiful game of futbol (or soccer, depending on where you are in the world).

Futbol is more than just a game—it serves as a powerful force for personal growth and social connection. It fosters confidence, discipline, and teamwork, uniting people across cultures and backgrounds. For me, it has been a lifelong source of inspiration, teaching me valuable life lessons, building friendships, and creating a sense of belonging. The impact of futbol goes far beyond the field, shaping who I am today, and I want to share that same experience with kids who may not otherwise have the opportunity.

I have partnered with Eco Sports to provide eco-friendly, top-quality balls. With a large order, I can purchase new size 5 balls for $25 each, including tax and shipping. My goal is to raise enough funds for 200+ balls.

I fell in love with soccer the moment I stepped onto the field at age four, and I’ve played ever since. Moving around a lot as a child, soccer was my way in—it was something I excelled at, and it was a great way to make friends. Now in my 40s, I’m still playing, and it keeps me healthy and connected to a vibrant soccer community. It motivates me to stay strong, recover from injuries, and pursue my goal of lifelong fitness, so I can keep up with my kids no matter my age.

The love for soccer runs deep for many players and fans. I hope to reach like-minded folks who feel the same call to pay it forward with a small but meaningful gesture. If soccer has touched your life, been a positive influence since your youth, and filled your heart with good memories as it has mine, then join me in passing that love along to the next generation.

Much love,

Jay
