Kick for Peace is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization whose mission is to provide soccer balls to children and youth in various refugee camps around the world. We seek to use soccer as a tool to bring joy, hope and a measure of normalcy to children and youth who have been forcibly displaced from their homes as a result of conflict, violence or natural disasters.
The project combines our love of soccer and a desire to give back to the world and share the joy of soccer. We specifically chose to send soccer balls to children in refugee camps to give them a measure and sense of normalcy (even for a moment) in their lives that have been upended by conflict or natural disasters. Even something as simple as a soccer ball can give so much joy to children, as soccer is the most popular in the world.
