New Jersey teen Lucas Weissman sets example in youth leadership 13-year old Lucas Weissman from Milburn, New Jersey organized a PeacePassers fundraiser at the Sports Academy (www.the-sports-academy.com) on June 24th, 2009. The event was to raise awareness and collect soccer supplies for PeacePassers.  With this event Lucas took the opportunity to encourage his friends to participate in giving back to the game. Along with nearly 50 Millburn classmates and Ironbound Soccer Club teammates, they collected more than 25 soccer balls, 3 dozen pair of cleats, numerous soccer socks, shin guards, uniforms, goalie equipment, whistles, & cones. All will be shipped to the PeacePassers headquarters to then find a home with children around the world. The PeacePassers Team would like to thank Mark & Julie Weissman for helping to coordinate this memorable event!
