OA's Project Ecuador

Opportunitas Aequa's first project is the collection of new and used soccer equipment to be transported and distributed to the rural province of Chimborazo in Ecuador. The goal of Project Ecuador is to deliver 1000 soccer balls, and 1000 pairs of soccer cleats to some of the most impoverished children in Ecuador.

Project Ecuador reaches 1000th Ball!

OA reached the milestone on Saturday November 18th 2006. It represents half of our goal of 1000 balls and 1000 pairs of cleats.

While a lot of work is still needed to reach the millennium mark for cleats, OA is confident of reaching the goal before the departure date to Ecuador.

OA is still collecting balls, even though are target has been reached. One thing we have learned through conversations with people in Chimborazo - if we could bring down 3000 balls, they could all be put to use.

Maintain the aim.
