When Jonathon’s mom lost her job, she had to pull him out of the soccer program he loved. That could have been the end of his journey—but then Agape FC stepped in. We welcomed Jonathon with open arms, and he quickly became a standout player, earning the role of captain on our inaugural travel team. His leadership and talent caught the eye of one of Long Island’s top academies, who offered to sponsor him to join their program. We couldn’t be prouder of Jonathon and can’t wait to see all he’ll accomplish next.
Synder came to the U.S. from Peru in the summer of 2024. His father told him he might have to give up his dream of playing professional soccer—that opportunities here would be out of reach. He didn’t speak English and didn’t have any friends to play with. Then one day at the park, he found Agape FC. From that moment on, everything changed. Synder became part of our family, and his talent quickly stood out. He was soon recruited on scholarship by one of Long Island’s top academies. His journey is just beginning—and we’re proud to have been a part of it.
When Aiden was spending time at the park with the wrong crowd, Agape FC gave him another path. We offered him a chance to play—and he took it. Today, those bad influences have been replaced by teammates who support and push him to grow. Aiden continues to shine on and off the field and is now proudly entering his third season with Agape FC.
There are countless other testimonies and many more waiting to happen!
