In many cases, these kids have nothing or have to share everything. These shirts may be the only item that some of these children can call their own. They love soccer more than anything and our friends that took these items could not say enough about how thankful and excited these children were for our gifts. LAMB is a Christian outreach organization working in Honduras to help save kids from human trafficking, poverty and gang life to name a few hopes. Today, LAMB operates a school for children in one of the most violent and poverty stricken areas, a large youth outreach program, multiple community programs, and a residential home outside the city for over 65 children who came from situations of abuse and neglect. The kids play soccer and are mentored. The mission has a 100 percent success rate in that all the teens that have been involved with it have managed to escape the gang lifestyle that so many of these Honduran children become a part of.
