For the Love of Football

Feeling feverish because of the World Cup fever? Then here’s a remedy you can take immediately: Havaianas’ Teams Collection.

The well-loved flip-flop brand from Brazil (current FIFA World Cup host and one of football’s powerhouse teams), spreads the football love to our feet with its limited edition collection featuring football powerhouses Argentina, France, Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal, and of course Brazil among others.

You may ask, where is this penchant for football coming from? You see, for most countries around the world, football is regarded as a religion (no kidding!). Try to see a World Cup match on your TV one of these days and you’ll understand why.

For PHP 1145, you have a chance to channel the pride of these nations with its symbolic styles true to its country. More importantly, however, is that a percentage of total sales will go as proceeds to the Field of Hope – a long-term advocacy program that rehabilitates communities affected by the Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda, using football as a tool for social change and development.

The project specifically aims to help the children from affected communities recover from the trauma, rebuild their lives and put them on the road to a brighter future through football programs.

It’s like hitting two birds with one stone: you get to support your fave international team (here’s to hoping that we’ll soon see our own on FIFA World Cup as well) and at the same time, you get to help the survivors of the devastating Yolanda.
