Homeless World Cup T-Shirts
September 17th, 2009 . 3:00 pm . By: Buzz CarrickSupport this great cause and get yourself a cool t-shirt. In case you’ve never heard of it, the Homeless World Cup is an annual, international football tournament, uniting teams of people who are homeless to take a once in a lifetime opportunity to represent their country. The tourney has resulted in grass roots football projects in over 60 nations working with over 25,000 homeless and excluded people throughout the year. The tournament first took place in 2003 and last year featured 56 nations down in Australia. SoccerPro is selling the shirts and proceeds will go to the Homeless World Cup.

if anyone has Netflix, look up ‘kicking it’ in the catalog. This is a show that covers the homeless world cup. I’m getting a shirt, it’s definately a good cause.
Indeed Craig, good reminder.
Those are sweet.
This is pretty cool Buzz. Glad you put this up. I remember reading about this before the last World Cup and thinking what a great idea it was. Glad they came up with a way we can support it and bring attention to the Homeless situation around the world.
just bought my shirt! love the idea, and the movie was excellent.
Thanks for posting this buzz.
This is a great cause, would love to see this tournament come to Dallas in the future…
Worst tee I have ever seen should give those to the homeless
FYI there is a team of homeless players in FT Worth that plays Street Soccer. Here is a link to their website – http://soccer.libertyconcepts.com/teams/fort_worth
If you are feeling charitable this is a good cause..
2ndRate – you are a jackass.
Thanks for the info Buzz. Just ordered a shirt. “Kicking It” was a great movie. I might look into helping out a local chapter.
