| Develop and maintain a non-profit entity to facilitate our mission of providing healthy activities, educational incentives, self-esteem, community pride, motivation and positive role models to both youth and adults of African nations. Collaborate with the African Football Federations and Peace Corps volunteers to coordinate and implement Project Play in impoverished African nations. In phases, send Project Play staff to African nations to implement the program and coordinate the distribution and use of soccer balls at schools, work sites and community centers and health facilities in association with the Football Associations and the local Peace Corps volunteers. Provide Peace Corps volunteers with a manual showing various ways to utilize soccer balls to achieve the goals of the program and assist them with implementing the program. Implement Project Play in other African nations. Phase I will be Project Play Niger 2008. Following each phase, the program will be reviewed and evaluated for effectiveness before the next phase is planned. |
