Boy With a Ball Global is now more than a month into the design process on our new website with the design company, Giles-Parscale, due to your generosity and investment in this project! You can be the first to see a sneak peek of what the new design will look like below as a reward for your part in this critical process for the future of our organization.
Now that the basic layout has been approved, Giles-Parscale is working to build the site out and we hope to see it launched at some point in the summer. We will keep you posted!
This site will coincide with Boy With a Ball Global's offices moving to Atlanta, Georgia. This is an exciting time and we are so thankful for your partnership in helping us!
We are still $2,500 away from having everything we need to finish the project so tell your friends about what we are doing and see if they would like to be involved. We are also looking for helping in making a two minute video about our organization that will be a key part in this new site so let us know if you know anyone you think would be a good fit in working with us on this video.
If you have any questions or thoughts, just email us at info@boywithaball.com.
Sincerely,
Jamie

We’re very excited to be able to tell you about all the foundation’s activities this past April.
Community participation has been increasing over the past few weeks. For instance, our tutoring program now reaches around 110 children and teens in both communities combined. (Squatter's Settlements:El Triángulo de la Solidaridad y Los Cuadros de Guadalupe)
In May, we’ll be starting sports programs for young girls from El Triángulo, promoting exercise for girls, along with the existing boy’s sports programs.
If you want to learn more about our activities, we invite you to read our monthly newsletter and see our Facebook, Web Site and You Tube.

Once again we want to thank all those people that have helped our project to develop communities at risk. This is our second report of the year and we are very excited to share with you all of the achievements, activities, good news among other results.
In March we delivered education supplies to 200 children and teenagers in the communities we work in. This is not only an investment in their education but also an investment to support their dreams and help them build a better future.
Another important event was the leadership camp in which most of our staff was composed of people that belong to one of the communities we are working in (Triangulo de la Solidaridad). This was really a dream come true for our organization since many of these young people have been attending to our program to develop leadership skills and are now assessing the teenagers in Lincoln high school which is one of the most expensive institutions in the country and the big social gap that exists between them was not an obstacle.
Also we completed advertising videos that show the work that we do in the communities. The first video is about helping children and young people in their homeworks through tutoring. The second one is about a microenterprise that we started at the community El Triángulo.
We would like to invite you to become a donor and if you are already one to continue volunteering and support us in our cause. Help us invest in the future and the of future young leaders in very vulnerable communities.
