Molten and ASEAN Football Federation Present MY FOOTBALL KIT to Children in Cambodia
On December 4, 2023, in a social contribution activity of the ASEAN Football Federation (hereinafter referred to as AFF),
Sales members of Molten Sports' Thai subsidiary Molten Thailand also participated, visiting an elementary school in Cambodia.
The school visited this time has a total of 280 students from 7 to 15 years old. Many children from surrounding schools also participated in the event.
AFF has long been implementing projects to build elementary schools and soccer courts in Cambodia and Laos, where the gap between the rich and poor is the widest among member associations.
This time, we delivered MY FOOTBALL KIT together with Mr. Khiev Sameth, President of AFF, Mr. Winston, CEO of AFF, and Mr. Thanasak, Vice President of Thai Football Association, to the elementary school in Cambodia that was established with AFF's funds.
The school's teachers understood that MY FOOTBALL KIT is made of 70% recycled polypropylene, that it is a soccer ball that does not require air inflation, and that it has a strong educational component as it develops spatial awareness. Through an interpreter, we explained to the children how to assemble the ball.
The event was a great success with children assembling MY FOOTBALL KIT.
Many of the children did not seem confident in assembling the kit at first, but as they got the hang of it, they were enthusiastic about it.
Konkan, a sales representative from Molten Thailand, participated in the MY FOOTBALL KIT support activities for the first time.
He was nervous at first, but as he watched the children eagerly assemble the MY FOOTBALL KIT, he communicated with them with a smile on his face, making it a good experience for local employees of Molten Thailand.
A school teacher commented.
"It was impressive to see the children so happily and enthusiastically engaged in the project. Thank you for creating such an opportunity."
AFF has established several schools and soccer courts within Cambodia and in Laos.
With these organizations, we are able to deliver opportunities for growth and an environment for the next generation of children together, even when they are not at the venue of a match.
We are able to provide support for children overseas with the cooperation of many people.
