PASS-A-BALL
Buy a football and give one to a child in need for free
ark Social Soccer Co is a social enterprise. The passion for soccer is universal, but opportunity is not. Sometimes, something as simple as a soccer ball is all it takes to change someone’s life.
Every kid deserves a ball to kick around, but often kids go without. So a team started the PASS-A-BALL PROJECT where people can buy a PARK ball.. PARK is providing balls for kids in need. When people buy a PARK ball, they PASS-A-BALL to a kid in need. While buyers are making friends in the park, and getting the benefits of playing soccer, so are they.
PAss-A-Ball partner with Australian and international charities to distribute the balls and share the positive social, psychological and health benefits of park soccer with kids, communities and schools. PARK aims to blend the creativity and powerful storytelling of artists with the social benefits of soccer to create a unique voice in the soccer world.
PARK was founded by two creative and soccer mad friends Sam Davy and Tara Martins.
