Elijah Kellie: Working in the areas like youth support has been my passion and privilege for many years for me. There is a level of frustration among the youths in Sierra Leone especially among those who have strong ambitions and skills, among those who will ultimately lead in the future and that is of major concern to me. So basically I will like people to know that the kids out there need help. FC Kellie obviously is a vehicle we are here to help the children but we can ' t do it all by ourselves we need help out there in terms of donations in terms of giving us your old equipment, boots, old football equipment and if you have books that you would like to donate to the club anything that you feel that you might not need just think of a third world country and that there are kids out there that needs help. So just feel free to get in touch with FC Kellie. We are not just about money we are not here just looking for money we are looking for anything that will help, or you can come in and form a partnership with us to help the kids out there.
ASM: That’ s a really noble stance and I have to applaud you for what you are doing. I can truly and really detect an intense passion in your voice in everything that you have said throughout this interview. I want to thank you for taking your time to talk to African Sports Monthly Magazine today and we look forward to talking to you again as time goes on and your project develops, as this team grows to become what it has to be and help put Sierra Leone and African Football on the map because there is a larger perspective to all of this. This can actually raise the profile of African Football globally if we have many owners across the continent like you. Thank you again for your time and hopefully we get to chat again sometime
Elijah Kellie: Well basically I just want to say thank you Africa Sports Monthly. Thank you for your time. Obviously you guys are paving the way for other Africans. There are people out there who are gonna be inspired by what you guys are doing. Obviously you are opening big doors for others and thank you once again and may God bless you.
