Hi all. I just wanted to introduce my new non-profit. We are called the Walton Trade Exchange Corporation. We believe that all our area children should benefit from community sports activities.What we do is collect used sports equipment such as bats, balls, gloves, cleats, protective gear...basically any type of sports equipment. We also collect monetary donations to help with registration fees And we will hook up a child with a Parent Transportation Partner. The transportation partner's goal is to assist a family who cannot enroll their child in sports because they have no way to get them to and from.

We take these donations, clean them up and disburse them to low income, single parent and foster families. This way every child who wants to play a community sports activity will have the opportunity to do so.
Please help us spread the word! Children are waiting.
Thank You!

Hi all! My name is Jennifer Black. I can be reached at 850-401-3480 or at thetradeexchangefl@yahoo.com.

Things are going well so far. Donations are coming in and we are able to serve some of the children on the list. We would like to be able to sponsor a soccer team this fall to help get the word out. We also will be teaming up (pending) with Tri county for registration funds. Please call if you want to help or to volunteer. Right now we are working on getting the office together. It has to be framed in with a new roof. After that is done, there will be a safe place to housedonations for disbursement. Materials and labor is needed for that. Thank everyone for all of your wonderful support!
