OYSAN Donating Soccer Balls to Haitian Relief Efforts

Richfield, Ohio. June 29, 2011:  Beth Gerberich, a representative of the “Christian Fellowship Mission”, wants to bring some much-needed relief to the boys and girls in Haiti… and Ohio Youth Soccer Association is helping her do just that!

OYSAN has donated several adidas tournament soccer balls, size 4, to Ms. Gerberich for her five hour flight to Haiti later this week.  She plans on delivering the equipment to Port Au Prince, and ultimately arriving in area that is referred to as “the island” where there is an orphanage attempting to create a sense of normalcy for Haitian children.

Although for many Americans, the earthquake is long-forgotten, for Haitian children, the earthquake still affects their daily lives in a substantial way. Many children lost parents and family… and in turn, their childhoods.  The small donation from OYSAN of soccer balls will hopefully provide for a bit of fun in their lives.

Christian Fellowship Mission is not associated with Ohio Youth Soccer Assocaition North.
