The Golden Wickets initiative, led by 9-year-old Veer Tangri, is making great progress in its mission to support children in need. Running until November 25th, this donation drive aims to collect gently used shoes for young athletes in remote villages of India.
Veer has already begun working on this important initiative, partnering with the India Youth Soccer Association (IYSA), which supports thousands of children through soccer. Many of these children lack proper footwear, and these donations can provide them with the resources they need to engage in sports and community activities.
This initiative not only provides essential gear but also helps communities and children learn important values such as teamwork, perseverance, and respect. The collected boots will be distributed to children in need in December 2024, just in time for the holidays.
Join us in celebrating Veer and the Golden Wickets initiative. Together, we can make a significant difference in the lives of young athletes in India!
