Eastside FC in Ethiopia

Giuliana Sercu, a player on Coach Turner's GU13W team, recently made a trip to Ethiopia.  With the help of her team and the Passback program operated jointly by US Soccer Foundation and Eurosport, she was able to deliver a little soccer joy to some deserving kids. 

Well done, Giuliana and team!

Here's the report she sent to me and Steve Fear, the Passback program manager at Eurosport......

Dear Mr. Racine and Mr. Fear,

I just wanted to thank you for helping me reach my goal of delivering 30 soccer balls and 5 pumps to kids in Ethiopia.  Thanks to my U-13 soccer team and to EuroSport I brought over 60 soccer balls with me to Ethiopia. We delivered balls to 3 different schools and 1 village. All of the kids and adults were overjoyed!

The schools did not have any soccer balls before we came, and now they have lots! I attached some pictures of me delivering soccer balls in Ethiopia. Once again, thanks so much for your support!

Sincerely,

Giuliana Sercu
