Many children in the community are affected by family drug abuse and do not have a safe or structured place to spend their time. Although many of them are interested in football, they lack access to organized training and guidance to help them grow in a positive direction.
If we expand our program for sports at our church, more children will be able to stay engaged in a healthy activity that keeps them away from drug-influenced environments. They will build discipline, teamwork, and stronger daily routines. Families will begin to see positive changes in behavior, and children will become more connected to supportive peer relationships.
Our church will expand our football classroom where children receive regular training in football skills, teamwork, and discipline. The church will organize consistent practice sessions and small competitions to keep children involved and motivated. To make this possible, the program will provide footballs and training equipment, simple coaching materials, food during training, transportation for competitions, and uniforms for matches. This will allow 20 children to participate fully and consistently while also receiving ongoing anti-drug teaching and community support.
