For my service project, I delivered soccer cleats to people not as fortunate. I worked with an organization named JUNGLE. JUNGLE’s main goal is to provide soccer cleats and equipment to kids in Jamaica. We received 12 boxes of cleats from Coach Margo Flack. Over the last 3 months I collected boxes of cleats and delivered them to the warehouse in Davie. The cleats are then brought to the Arnette Gardens in Jamaica, and JUNGLE hosts a soccer tournament for the children. This project is important because it helps other kids. With these supplies more children can learn to play soccer. In total we received over 115 cleats!
The purpose of this project is to help kids less fortunate then us. By providing them cleats they can play sports and have opportunities that they may have not had before. This is very important because it can also create bonds. With these new cleats there will be teams created and they will not have to worry about not being able to participate because they don’t have cleats.
I have accomplished helping kids that may not be able to purchase these items. I felt that this project was very valuable to the community as well as the JUNGLE team. By raising awareness about the importance of the project and the importance of the supplies we provided over 100 pairs of cleats.
