Last Saturday I helped out with a practice of the Haitian National Amputee Soccer team. The team is hoping against hope to raise the $20,000 US it needs to attend the Copa America 24 aug. in Brazil which starts around August 15th, but they only have $2,500 so far.
A better bet is for them to play in the next Amputee world cup which will take place in Mexico 8 Oct. 2014.
In the meantime, we are trying to raise funds for them just to practice at a team. Each practice costs about $100 US due to transportation costs and water, etc.
This Sunday Quisqueya Chapel has invited them to sing and sell food after church as a fund raiser.
So continue to pray for this team, and for funds for them to be able to go to the next Amputee World Cup.
