During the event, children were able to meet players from other teams and spend a fun afternoon doing what they love most: play football. The participating schools were: Laverde Brothers, C.F. Lecumberry, Charallave F.C., Los Rosales and the Jímenez Football Academy.
Sarkis Yammine, spokesman for the Yammine Foundation, expressed his joy at the event’s success and the teamwork that made it possible:
“We have rewarded 150 medals, one for each child, 5 trophies to reward all participating schools and donated two balls to each of said schools. Our aim is to continue supporting children’s football, something we have worked towards for many years, in this part of Miranda,” he said.
He said that the Yammine foundation, in the framework of their Sowing Future program, is especially invested in children and regularly supports them in areas such as education, sports and culture.
For his part, Juan de Jesús Ramírez, vice-president of the Miranda state Football Association, thanked the Yammine Foundation for their support.
“It’s a point of pride to be able to count with the Yammine Foundation’s support, since given the current situation, it is extremely hard to acquire football equipment. This Foundation reached areas of the country where many never even try to look, and has been of great help in the Valles del Tuy area,” he said.
