Recycle your soccer jerseys through charity
How much does a soccer jersey cost nowadays? $50? $75 sometimes more than $100. And how long do they last? A season concludes and the kids are off to new uniforms and bigger sizes. Why not put those old jerseys to good use in another part of the world?
A program through Bangladesh Relief Fund will take those unneeded jerseys off your hands and provide them to kids in Bangladesh. The program is based in Ohio, of all places. It's relatively small, but anyone is welcome to make a donation. The concept is that soccer unites and heals.
I discovered the program after a local newspaper profiled a team of Minnesota players that donated their old jerseys to the program. Think of it, an entire team's worth of uniforms for kids in a poor nation to use and play in.
This YouTube video has more details on the program.
