MANILA, Philippines - The Moran Foundation will hold the �Football for Good Challenge Festival� on Aug. 14 at the La Salle-Greenhills, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The one-day football festival is being held for the less fortunate kids aged 13-16 years old coming from institutions like Gawad Kalinga, Tuloy sa Don Bosco, Nayon ng Kabataan and Manila Boys Town, among others.
�Football for Good Challenge Festival is the first of several football festivals that we are organizing this year under the Henry V. Moran Foundation, of which I am head of football programs,� said Ed Formoso.
The football charity is being called �Football for the Good of Others,� which is being done to help poor kids have a good time and provide them hope through the sport, the most popular sport in the world but never in the country.
As a foundation, the Moran Foundation already helped send kids to play in international tournaments like the Homeless World Cup in 2008 in Melbourne, Australia and 2009 in Milan, Italy.
In this year�s Homeless World Cup in South Africa, the Filipino street kids turned in a remarkable performance.
