Reach for Cleats
A lifelong dream of
mine has always been to change the world and make it a better place
for all people, of all races and all ages. Well I figured that if this
dream is to come true, I have to start somewhere and why not start
with something that I love. As an adoring and enthusiastic soccer teenager,
I want to give children what I have loved and will continue to love
for so long. Sports, such as soccer help to make life better. But for
some kids, who love the game just as much as I do, they have an unfair
disadvantage because they do not have the basic equipment.
To make this mission
of mine, “Reach for Cleats,” come to fruition, I am trying
to collect soccer cleats and shin pads as well as uniforms that children
have
outgrown that are in fair and useable condition. I will be collecting
this equipment at the Labor Day Classic and will be working with outreach
groups to distribute items collected to underprivileged to help them
enjoy the game as much as we do.
Please pass this information
along to all of your teams parents and have them dig into their closets
and gather any old and outgrown soccer equipments such as cleats, shinpads
and uniforms and bring to the collection booth at the CVYSC Labor Day
Classic at Conestoga Valley High School in Lancaster on August 31 and
September 1, 2002.
I will be there to
discuss why I am doing this and how I hope to succeed. I am a sophomore
in High School and I am hoping your assistance will help make this
dream begin to come true.
If you cannot make
your contribution of equipment at the event and would like to participate
in helping my goals, please email the club at this email
address expressing your interests or contact us at 717-656-1000. We
can then work out a time to gather the items you wish to contribute.
You can also mail items
to the clubs attention at:
Reach for Cleats

Lancaster, PA 17601
Thank you for your
time.
