John Mingus fundraising for Arlington Soccer Association #GivingTuesday

Dear friends and family,

My experiences coaching soccer and being involved in ASA have shown me how much benefit kids get from teamwork and how much enjoyment they get from playing with their friends, win or lose.

Please help me bring those experiences to even more children by making a donation to ASA's Real Madrid after-school soccer and mentoring program. This program brings soccer directly to at-risk kids at their schools, kids whose family situations often prevent them from taking part in the activities so many of our children take for granted. The program is led by specially-trained coaches who work closely with the schools to help participants develop responsibility and self-esteem both on the field and in the classroom.

Here's how your donation can help:

$25 pays for 3 soccer balls

$50 pays for uniform shirts for 5 children

$100 pays for 1 child to participate

$500 pays for 5 children to participate

$5000 (wow!) pays for program expansion to another school

You can support this program by making a donation by #GivingTuesday, (December 1). Plus, the first $2,500 donated to this cause will be matched by Lindsay Automotive Group!

Thank you for joining me in making sure ALL kids can play!
