Monday Montage: Faces of Life
These are some of the faces of Team USA, the Homeless World Cup all star team that will represent in Melbourne, Australia:
And this just in from our friend, Jeremy Goldberg XD of Global Youth Partnership for Africa:
“The Homeless World Cup has confirmed the Global Youth Partnership for Africa’s “Team Gomo Tong” participation in the 2008 Homeless World Cup in Melbourne, Australia. Team Gomo Tong will participate in the first ever: “Female Homeless World Cup.”
Team Gomo Tong will organize a team of seven young women with the objective to both bring the cup to Uganda, but also to develop new relationships and friendships with players from around the world.
The 1st Female Homeless World Cup will feature teams from: Cameroon, Colombia, Kyrgz Republic, Ivory Coast, Philipines, Paraguay and Zambia.
As part of our Girls Kick It! program, GYPA will commence recruitment, education, training and futbol practice by this Summer 2008.”
Having seen some of the women of Team Gomo Tong play - they’ve got a good shot. If you want to support Team Gomo Tong 2008, go here and do what you can.
