West Ham donate football kit to Kenya

|

Some happy Hammers in Wamba, Kenya thanks to Kit donated by the club through Kit Aid. The kits were sent from the West Ham kit manager following a letter from Kit Aid Patron, Graham Taylor.

KitAid is a charity that recycles once loved football kit and distributes to under privileged children and adults in some of the World’s poorest countries. Over 300,000 kits have been donated since 1998.

    As counterintuitive as this might sound, this isn’t really that great a thing to do — at least for the long term prospects of the recipients. By supplying free clothing you remove the need for the beneficiaries to produce their own clothing generating economic activity and wealth rather than relying on hand outs.

    I would say that you wouldn’t hope to solve a clean water supply problem in a village by supplying them with surplus Coca-Cola rather than digging a well, but actually that’s also what happens.
