Soccer balls

Maurice

During our trip to Haiti in February 2011, we were fortunate enough to meet a really great guy and soccer coach named Maurice at the guest house. He was so touched by news footage of kids kicking cans and empty bottles that he came all the way to Haiti with a suitcase full of deflated soccer balls which he gave to kids on the streets of Port-au-Prince. Maurice was kind enough to share some of the balls with us that we happily gave to the children at St. Vincent's.

When we came back to visit in March, we were able to snap a few pics of St. Vincent's students enjoying the balls!

This young man was particularly good with his feet and photogenic to boot!
