Guest post by Gabrielle Sutton<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mambuna Bojang \u201996 was \u201cborn and bred in the community of Gunjur.\u201d When Transylvania University offered him a soccer scholarship, he took it \u2014 by fall 1992, he was a part of Transy\u2019s family. Like many alumni, Bojang\u2019s favorite part about being a Pioneer was \u201cthe close-knit community that the school offers.\u201d He now works in the IT department at Transy as the technology support coordinator. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To support and represent these two communities that made a positive impact on his life, Bojang became involved in graciously donating soccer equipment, jerseys and Transylvania athletic T-shirts to several soccer camps in West Africa. These include donating jerseys to the athletics club in Gunjur and a soccer team in Manjai, along with basketballs and volleyballs to Brikama. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bojang made his most recent donation of Transylvania athletic T-shirts to Jatta\u2019s Academy \u2014 a soccer academy in West Africa that provides personal and team training for young children through young adults \u2014 in his native village of Gunjur in Gambia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bojang felt driven to donate these T-shirts because of his understanding as a former soccer player in bringing uniformity among the academy. He also understands the importance of uniformity so that the kids feel good about themselves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When asked about his favorite part of donating to Jatta\u2019s Academy, Bojang said, \u201cI want to give the kids the opportunity and environment I did not have growing up. As kids, we played soccer bare-footed and had no proper uniforms. Giving these T-shirts and other gear to the academy brought smiles upon the kid\u2019s faces. It\u2019s a form of engaging and encouraging the kids.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
