KAMS’ AFFIRMATION BALL INITIATIVE

KAMS creates Affirmation Soccer Balls (Soccer Balls with positive affirmations printed on them) and distributes them to youth to act as a reminder to the youth of their worth, and “truths” about them that will empower them to excel and overcome challenges.

Affirmations are a powerful tool of building a positive mind within a child, bringing self-confidence into their belief system, so that if their belief is challenged, the affirmation defeats the challenge. Affirmations provide positive foundations for children from which to grow on. We believe that affirmations have the power to create a story within a child. Children are continuously wiring their brain and molding their behaviors based on their environment, which eventually leads to their belief system. Self-confidence affects a child’s ability to learn and participate in school. Self-confidence promotes positive social, emotional, and physical growth; it drives relationships and empowers them to achieve their dreams and goals.
