In many developing countries, it is common for children to repurpose string and old garbage bags into soccer balls. To these children, soccer is much more than just a game. Hope is a Game Changer provides children with the opportunity to earn indestructible soccer balls. Each child is required to participate in programs like Grassroot Soccer, Esperance and Carolina for Kibera, which use soccer as a platform for teaching life skills before they can trade their old ball in for a new one.

This is Moises’s football made out of anything he could find laying around. It was his prized possession.
