Boy With a Ball is a non-profit that transforms communities by equipping and unleashing the young people within them. Since 2001, we have helped launch the Love Your City movement in seven cities and five countries including the United States. Thousands of volunteers, philanthropists and people just like you have joined together to turn and provide care, mentoring and life changing support for more than 20,000 young people. Our world is home to 1.8 billion youth, a population that is growing fastest in the poorest nations. 75 million youth globally, between 15 and 24 years of age are unemployed, out of school and falling easily into behaviors that damage themselves and, as a result, all of us.While troubled youth damage a city's future, together, through the power of relationships, we are helping these same young people become the heroes their city needs. Join us.
