Earlier this year, representatives from the Philadelphia KiXX professional soccer team (of which Turkey Hill Dairy is a sponsor) visited Africa. As you may know, soccer is a very popular sport among African youth. The photo below shows a very happy boy holding a brand new soccer ball in one hand and a bundle of cloth they’d been using as a soccer ball in the other hand.

A heart-warming sight! Very generous to give to those who have so little. We must do this in our own country as well.
To think that a new soccer ball could make the boys so happy is so touching and sad. Just picture what was under your Christmas tree. Guess we are really fortunate and hope we all appreciate it.
HAPPY NEW YEAR to all at Turkey Hill and all bloggers.
Kudoos!!
Thanks once again for doing such a great job in helping others to know that America isn’t such a bad place. By giving something as simple as a soccer ball, these children and their families know that Americans do care about them.
We don’t realize how much we have until we see others with little. A soccer ball to them is something to be treasured. It’s great to see what a great team Turkey Hill is sponsoring. I don’t know how well they play but they do help others.
Kudos to TH and KIXX for making some poor children very happy.
I have seen Phillies Graham Slam and Eagles touchdown ice cream. Where is the Kixx ice cream?
Turkey Hill is a champion in all respects. Helping others is their goal. Even producing the best ice cream is a feather in their cap.
This is a really great thing you are doing and I think something like this should be done every month for the kids that have so little and need so much. Turkey Hill is the best and not only for ice cream.
That was the best!
Happy New Year to everyone!
Great story.
Happy 2010 to everyone.
What a heart-warming story! Happy New Year to all!
simple pleasures are always the best!
HAPPY AND HEALTHY NEW YEARS TO ALL!

It is a small world
Turkey Hill you do so many great things for people. Keep the good stuff coming! Happy, Healthy New Year to all!
IT’S HARD TO HOLD BACK TEARS WHEN YOU SEE SOMEONE SO JOYFULLY HAPPY FOR SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE SOMEWHAT INSIGNIFICANT TO OTHERS. KEEP UP YOU GOOD WORK, YOU WILL BE REWARDED!
