Goal! Soccer for a Better Future, documentary.

Goal! Soccer for a Better Future, is a 26-minute documentary film created by the United States State department in anticipation of the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
The film tells the story of how six NGOs (GRS included) use the spirit of athletics to engage and empower disadvantaged youth in Brazil, South Africa and the United States.

The film examines athletes challenges in their communities and explores the game of soccer as an effective tool in life skills training. Thematic segments include respect, tolerance, diversity, gender equality, teamwork and opportunity. Check it out:

Support the Cause!

Thank you for checking out my blog. I am currently fund raising for an internship experience with Grassroot Soccer starting in August 2010. My goal is to raise $5,000 for living expenses and flights (currently at $4,392). I would appreciate your contribution to the cause!
