Any one know where i can get soccer companies to help donate soccer balls?

Question

For kids in Iraq its a community service project. Please help no crazy answers please... thanks

Answer 1

/ Here is a list of companies to contact...

You can contact each of these companies with your purpose, and they can stamp a friendly message on each ball which might read, "Donated by ----- Company for the Children of Iraq."

You are a good person and thoughtful.  I hope I will be seeing you on television for this!

Answer 2

Sports companies are overwhelmed with requests for donations. In all likelihood, your request is going to be in a sea of others, just as worthy.

You might want to explore an alternative to getting these soccer balls -- for instance, is there an online discussion group used by a lot of expats working in Iraq? (when I worked in Afghanistan, there was such a board that most everyone online used at one time or another). If so, post to it and ask anyone coming to Iraq for assignment, or coming back from R & R, to bring a soccer ball to donate to your program, and include your cell phone or email address so they can contact you for delivery.  Most NGO workers can't travel much, so if you can arrange for pickup from them, all the better.
