Follow on Google News | 17-year-old Putting Soccer Balls At The Feet Of Deserving Boys And GirlsBy: Cents4Soccer The year prior to her trip, Olivia gathered over 600 pieces of gently used gear donated by The Chicago Fire, Evanston Township High School, Glenbrook South High School, Sockers FC, Team Evanston, friends and teammates. "The soccer gear was great to hand out, but I learned what the kids and coaches needed more than gear, was good soccer balls," stated Olivia. Thanks to Camp Shutout and Wisconsin Men's Soccer Coach Stan Anderson, Olivia had brought 40 balls with her, but she came back from Guatemala with a mission; to make a match quality hand sewn soccer ball that is affordable, so when one is bought, one can be donated. “I wanted to help, so I created oNe™, a socially-conscious company, that would match every ball purchased with a new ball given to a deserving child, club or team in need. Buy oNe, Give oNe, “ stated Olivia. Olivia worked with some of the leading designers in Pakistan to design 6 different colored balls that meet the strict FIFA requirements. “A soccer ball can change a person's life. From street soccer, to playing in the backyard, to the pros, oNe™ ball can make a difference,” Olivia Post is on a mission to put soccer balls at the feet of deserving boys and girls, check out her Kickstarter campaign at https://www.kickstarter.com/ End
