by the tribute of those that were less fortunate back then and what they have become now and have achieved in their lives all because of what my parents did. While sitting down, tears was flowing down my face because I couldn’ t believe it …. I was just overwhelmed, and then after that I decided to carry on the legacy they have left in remembrance of them. So FC Kellie came into being after doing a series of research. I found out that in many parts of the world sports activities in general and football in particular are now being incorporated into a variety of programs to serve the youths to address a broad range of issues affecting their lives. These include children’ s rights, education, and the promotion of health and peace; so FC Kellie was basically created in 2007 and 2008 as a vehicle to help impact the skills needed by our next generation and to overcome the many challenges faced by the country. Obviously we all know the situation that happened to Sierra Leone and where we are now and where we are going; you know from poverty to low educational standards …. so basically this is to help these kids via football. What I strongly believe in is that we can create social change through the power of football.
