The Start of Something Great

Welcome any and all readers!

As most of you know, I am going to Ndejje, Uganda until next June to work with an non-profit called Soccer Without Borders. This blog will be one way that I will document my time there. I will be posting anything from updates on the program's status, to personal experiences, to player profiles straight from the pitch.

Since SWB is a non-profit organization, I won't have any sort of income while I'm there. That means that I need to raise quite a bit of money to cover basic living costs for 10 months abroad. Anything that you can donate is greatly appreciated and will help give marginalized youth an opportunity to develop leadership and social skills while providing them with a structured team experience. The easiest way to donate is by clicking on the link on the right-hand side of the blog. If you would rather donate by check, please send it to:

2149 Byron St.
Berkeley, CA 94702

Be sure to note that you are contributing on my behalf. Also, your donation IS tax-deductible!

Thanks everyone, I really appreciate your time. I hope that you will follow me on here. For more information on Soccer Without Borders, please go to www.soccerwithoutborders.org.

Til next time.
