My Journey to Bolivia [PART V] As part of the event, we created some special Christmas baskets for those families who needed it most and couldn’t attend due to working in the farms and were there with their kids. For the special event, we went to the forest to cut a small tree to pretend Santa Claus will come during the night with the Christmas tree included. I’d say it was the best Christmas tree I had in my life. This experience we created was the first part of the event, and now for the second part. The football tournaments! For many, this was more exciting for all those boys and girls. We set up the groups in categories, boys and girls with subcategories kids and youth, a total of 15 teams of futsal (5-aside) and we played at the school grounds. We gave them all the equipment that Footy Addicts provided us such as t-shirts, water, fruits juices, snacks and other refreshments. I have met and heard many stories from some parents and children that now I consider them warriors. These children have to work in rural areas where there is no transport at all to get there and then go to school. Some of them even have to leave in the middle of the class as their homes are around 1.5 hours walking away, and they need to get home before night falls. Many kids study in the afternoon and work in the morning (Saturdays and Sundays included!) and this was their daily routine.
