Soccer is a very popular sport around the world. There are many countries where kids cannot afford the things needed to play soccer. This includes soccer cleats, shin guards, soccer balls, goals, etc. One example of a kid that couldn't afford these items is a kid from Haiti. Erick Noel an 18 year old boy has played soccer for a decade barefoot. Until a family decided to gather a bunch of soccer cleats and ship over a thousand cleats to Haiti. Now kids can play their favorite sport with the items they need.
My community is the soccer field and my team since I've been at TCU. After realizing how lucky I am it's not only made me very grateful but also made me realize I want to give to kids that can't afford these things.
