… or would they be Podwaves?
Whatever you might call them, SoccerGrow was recently featured on an episode of the soccer podcast, The Goalmouth Scramble. This bi-weekly and sometimes crazy soccer podcast features talk about the English Premier League, transfers, rumors, soccer fantasy, and even Soccer Manager.
You can hear in the episode, which was published August 14th, lots of information about SoccerGrow and other soccer charities doing good work around the world. This is what makes the beautiful game so beautiful. People in need are empowered by total strangers who are willing to lend some money or even the shirts off their backs in the name of sportsmanship and common humanity. This spirit embodies the power of soccer, and this is the fertile field across which SoccerGrow wants to continue broadcasting the seeds of positive change.
Won’t you help do your part?

As has been written in recent posts, SoccerGrow is excited to be partners with Kicks4Kenya, an organization that believes everyone should enjoy the beautiful game with a right proper ball. Now the circle of our partnership has grown to include you! We’ve connected to Kicks4Kenya, now we want you to do the same, because you are the most important part of the circle.
Would you want to play soccer with a ball made out of rope and plastic bags? Well, neither do the orphans in places like Nakuru, Kenya, but you have the power to help change that. TJ Widbin, founder of Kicks4Kenya makes radical positive change in people’s lives, simply by giving them a soccer ball.
Help TJ Make Positive Change
At first you might think that giving soccer equipment to those in need is a waste of resources and energy, when there is so much more to be done. But if you reflect on your own life I’m sure that you’ll realize that it’s not. The gift of proper soccer equipment can lend enjoyment, fitness, confidence and happiness to someone’s life. Now you can help make that plastic-bag reality a thing of the past by making a tax-exempt contribution through SoccerGrow.

We here at SoccerPro have just started a charitable giving program called SoccerGrow in which we want to use the power and potential of our growing customer base to make a real impact through the donation of soccer equipment or money to good causes.
SoccerGrow is just starting to gather steam, and our ever-philanthropic Tom Yonker has been researching various possible partners. Tom recently came across Kicks4Kenya, a program that looks very promising and interesting to SoccerGrow in the respect that Kicks4Kenya seems to have a tangible impact and personal ties to the people you are helping. This is the kind of impact SoccerGrow is interested in supporting because it reflects what we are all about.
Stay tuned as this blog grows in content and we’ll update you on our first of many charitable partnerships to come.
