Even though soccer is the world's most popular sport, many children living in poverty never get the opportunity to play with a proper ball. Instead, they use makeshift balls made from condensed plastic bags, bunches of shirts and socks, or woven sticks with mud.
Global Futbol Initiative was enacted on the belief that every child on earth should have the opportunity to play soccer with the right equipment.
