U.S. Army
Lieutenant Forming Soccer League for Iraqi Kids
Request: Soccer equipment donations for a good
cause
Hello,
I am a resident of Berkeley and I have a special
request. My brother, Eric Roles, is a lieutenant in the US
Army, stationed in Iraq right now. He has recently come up
with an idea to help foster international relations, particularly
with the Iraqi kids. He wants to start a soccer league for
Iraqi kids and is asking for donations of balls, jerseys, shin
guards and anything else one might use in playing soccer. He
is particularly interested in things that might be sitting unused
in your garage/basement, that he could give away and tell the kids
"An American wanted you to have this". Of course, new stuff
is also much appreciated, especially soccer balls (he has a goal of
getting 5,000 balls)! My parents in Baltimore are leading
this effort on his behalf and if you are interested in helping out
you can contact me or email my parents and Eric's fiancee at ericsgoal@hotmail.com.
There is also a short story on this at the local Baltimore TV
station's website (including a picture of my brother), http://wjz.com/topstories/local_story_082143002.html
Thanks for reading,
Angela Roles
