Impact Update #1 - Fighting Cholera and Food Shortages

JoBen Barkey

Hello Soccer Shots Partners, Coaches and Friends!


Our partnerships with schools and local families who choose our program is impacting thousands of children globally. We are now sending out Quarterly “Better Together” updates via email/text to keep you informed of your impact, at your convenience. 


B7 Foundation (our 501.c.3) is entirely funded by the soccer classes we run at the local schools we work with. We address issues related to access to education, safe drinking water and food insecurities. This quarter we provided access to clean water for the first time ever for a village in Cameroon (West Africa), by running a water line from an underground spring many miles away. This will immediately address the Cholera outbreak in their village of 300 residents. We also covered the hospital bills for a 10 year old girl named Lucy who was assaulted while carrying water for her family. Providing convenient access to water means no more dangerous journeys carrying water for her family. We graduated our first group of students from our new B7 Organic Agriculture School in Cameroon. 46 adult students now have the skills, tools and seeds necessary to farm sustainably on their own, with the ability for each student to feed 40 adults a day. They also have learned how to grow and process their own Artemisia plants, which is used as the primary ingredient in every Malaria medication. 



Thank you for partnering with Soccer Shots. We value our relationships and we want to be intentional about strengthening them. Quarterly emails offer insight into our work and the impact your Soccer Shots classes are having on families in developing countries. 


Thank you!
