sustainability benefits
We believe in the power of sport to create positive change both on and off the field. One of the key ways we do this is through our commitment to sustainability. By repurposing gently used soccer gear, we not only provide underprivileged youth with the tools they need to play the game, but we also make a significant impact on the environment. Learn about the environmental benefits of repurposing soccer gear and provide practical tips on how to maintain and recycle your soccer equipment.

Donate to a Top-Rated Charity
and change a child’s life
The Gift of Soccer has very cost-effective ways to get donations to even small villages like in Zimbabwe, Africa. We also sent a few ultra-durable One World Futbols that never need a pump and never goes flat. The ball can withstand the toughest environments in the world and last for years without maintenance. This kind of outreach has a major impact and affects some many kids with the power and gift of play!
