The Kicks Project
About Me
- The Kicks Project
- The Kicks Project was born out of an excursion to Africa where I met 3 children, Bongi, Donasi and Sorasi, who would change my perspective and purpose in life forever. After playing with them in the surrounding jungles of Marangu, I learned from my translator/guide that they had lost their younger sibling to malaria just days earlier. At that moment, I could not imagine how a disease could ever be so accepted as to be considered a normal way of life for children. I have since conducted fund-raisers in Mexico, helping to raise $7000 for the neglected street kids of Cusco Peru; as well as in my hometown of Philadelphia, breaking a Guinness World Record in moonwalking, earning donations for KidsPeace. In April 2008, I traveled to Brazil on the first sponsored Kicks Project to distribute malaria nets, soccer balls & essential life items to the families of the Para and Amazonas regions. In 2009 Kicks traveled to Trinidad to distribute life essentials to the impoverished orphanages of Port of Spain. We are currently conducting a soccer ball donation project with US soldiers in Afghanistan.
