I apologize for the lack of blogs in regards to Play For Hope. We are still extremely active and are planning next years events in Rwanda. We have been somewhat stalled by paperwork paperwork and more paperwork. We are in the process of filing for our incorporation and then our 501c3 status. It is a bit long and tedious but thankfully we have some great lawyers who are donating their time to us. I have been meeting a lot of great people in Arkansas who are already invested in Rwanda or are interested in Play For Hope as well as many Rwandans who are in America on a Presidential Scholarship. They play on a soccer team in Arkansas and it has been a lot of fun to talk to them about Rwanda and their potential involvement this summer with us as well. I am hoping to run trips this summer for soccer coaches, basketball coaches, and strength and conditioning coaches. We will see how that goes. We are also preparing to make a large push to open offices in Rwanda and hire a staff. We have big, big dreams that every day seem more attainable. I plan on returning to Rwanda in the next few months to set up organizational structure and all of the next summer as well as make many partnerships. I will post more details soon.
