Tim Jahnigen had a vision for a soccer ball that would eliminate the need for the hand-sewn leather balls typically donated by relief agencies. But he needed some help to make it a reality.

    If you had actually gone to their website, and made a slight effort to find out what people who have purchased a ball had to say about it, you would have found out that nowhere in the actual ball is there a Chevrolet logo. Chevy was a founding partner, and they pledged to donate 1.5 million balls. How much have YOU donated to charity recently?

    Non-profit methods have been tested and still are. I have nothing against it, but I despise people who want to use the state's monopoly on violence to prohibit it.

    I doubt you could make a soccer ball for yourself without the proper resources, either.

    Also, do not assume they are not sent tools and proper irrigation so they can farm for themselves; they are.
