LOS ANGELES - Popochos, the watch skin accessory made to accompany the classic silicone sports watch, will be sponsoring the OSA Juggle-a-thon. On April 25, World Malaria Day, people across the nation are invited to participate in the event to raise money for purchasing materials that will help families in Africa protect themselves from malaria ridden mosquitos.
Participants will collect donations and pledges leading up to the event and will spend April 25th juggling throughout the day. The goal is that each juggler will raise at least $30, enough to provide three families with bed nets, as well as, training on how to properly use the equipment. Participants who raise $100 and mail their pledge money to OSA will receive a promo code to redeem a FREE Imazine Sports Watch at popochosusa.com.
You don't have to be a soccer star to participate, everyone is encouraged to take part in the event. Working together through soccer, the goal is to help protect entire communities from a deadly disease. The mantra for the event? Juggle to get better. Juggle to save lives.
