(S2) - Weekend PT #7 - Charity Fundraiser

[cosbornballboy]

Sandoval's largest work has come in working with children abandoned after their parents were deported. Sandoval's self-funded charity, Abandoned Angels, has done seemingly impossible amounts of work with abandoned children in the short time it's been active. When asked what moved him the most, Sandoval responded, "Seeing a little boy who was left in the same situation as I once was. Left alone, at the border, and told to go make myself a life at 6 years old. It's devastating, man, what this government is doing to children and calling it 'national security.' Disgusting, man."

This is from a recent article written covering Ricardo Sandoval's charity work in San Jose.

As a follow-up, let's look at Abandoned Angels recent work. They ran a 7 on 7 football tournament for abandoned children of deported Mexican immigrants. The kids had a great time, and the event raised over $100,000 for the charity. The kids said it was "the greatest day of their lives," and Sandoval even had a 1 on 1 Linemen tournament for the heavyset kids. The more work he does, the better of an idea it seems to become for the San Jose SaberCats to take him in the S3 draft. We shall see.
