A little bit can go a long way.
Interested in donating?
Please note: increased shipping costs have increased our costs. To donate gear to our kids we ask that you consider donating to help pay for the direct shipping to Haiti (usually averages to $100 a box to cover freight and customs). We are happy to work with you to plan your drive.
Our gear donation process has changed. If you are interested in donating gear to our kids please email us at contact@goalshaiti.org to start the process. We are in most need of balls, shorts, and cleats size 5,6,7,8,9.
Kids in Haiti often play soccer barefoot, kicking around plastic bottles or tin cans if they can’t find a ball. One of the biggest ways you can help a GOALS kid in Haiti is to donate new and lightly used soccer equipment.
With your help, GOALS can give these players the gear they need to play the sport they love. In addition, we can supply teams with sports equipment materials such as pinnies, cones, soccer balls, pumps and needles to play soccer safely and with dignity. A little bit can go a long way in Haiti, so every donation makes a big difference!
what our players need
Soccer equipment for boys and girls aged 8 to 18: soccer balls, cleats, socks, shorts, uniforms, gloves, goalie apparel, etc. We have a real need for cleats size 5 or larger. See our wish list for more details.
We need help covering shipping costs. A suggested $100 donation is appreciated for each box. This will allow us to ship the materials to Haiti to reach our children directly. Please make sure and email us with an inventory of your items using our donation form. Thank you for your help!
We do not accept:
Dirty, torn, or unusable apparel, gear, equipment, materials, etc.
Clothing unsuitable for sports activities or cooler climates, such as jeans, tank tops, cotton t-shirts, pants, sweatshirts, jackets, etc.
We are not in need of shin guards or socks at this time.
how to organize an equipment drive
Register your equipment drive with GOALS by emailing contact@goalshaiti.org.
Determine the goal for your drive: Is there a deadline? A certain amount of equipment you’d like to collect?
Spread the word about your drive by contacting your friends, family members, colleagues, classmates, and neighbors. We recommend you contact local soccer clubs and organizations in the area. If you use social media to share your event remember to tag us or share the link with us and we can help promote as well.
Collect equipment! Make sure you write down each donation and make sure gear is clean and undamaged.
When your drive is complete
When your drive is complete, please let us know. Remember to include a copy of our donation form inside your box and email a copy to us at contact@goalshaiti.org.
Send the gear! We will help you to arrange the shipment. Currently we are using a shipping company in Miami to ship by boat to Haiti. You will mail your box(es) to Miami and the shipping company will send to our offices in Haiti directly. Please note: It may take up to 4 weeks for donations to be received in Haiti. We will send you pictures of the gear you collected being enjoyed by kids on the field in Haiti.
