9 girls and the experience
of a lifetime
|
Yesterday in Washington, DC, we formed a cheer tunnel as nine SCORES alumnae from our flagship program, DC SCORES, boarded a bus to New York. Some 24 hours and a long flight later, the teenage girls, along with two coaches, arrived in Russia as the only team representing the U.S.A. at the Street Child World Cup.
The team will be in Moscow for nine days playing in a soccer tournament with teams from around the world. Additionally, the girls - all from at-risk backgrounds - will speak about the issue of youth homelessness and connect with more than 400 other kids from around the world. Later this summer, the team will speak on Capitol Hill and in front of the United Nations about this life-changing experience. Here's how to follow along during the team's trip in Russia:
