One of the on going conversations we had been having was needing a safe after work activity for our soccer crew and community. A place where they could come hang out that was off the streets and gave them something to do. An activity that didn’t need a ton of input from our staff other than simply being there, encouraging hearts and loving people.
Out of many conversations, some that even included our soccer team was that a gym sounded like the best fit.
We dreamed up what it could look like, and little by little items have been being donated, and unexpected packages have been arriving. (Thank you ;) )
Though we have only had it open for less than a month, it is already being used daily. Not only has our soccer crew been using it, but little kids to mamas have also joined in on the fun.
We don’t know where this little gym will take us, but we know it’s just another tool in our tool belt for bringing change and transformation into these communities.
