With these 3 free, simple ways to be involved, it will only take you a couple of minutes each week to profoundly help us make a difference. Want to take your voice to the next level? There are even greater ways that you can help us SHARE THE VISION WITH OTHERS!

Here are 5 simple ways people can share our vision with others:

1. Know any basketball players, fans, runners, or coaches? Know people who are passionate about God and people? Tell them about what we’re doing!

2. If you are a teacher of any kind, you can use Dribble the World as a powerful illustration of the potential each of our lives has to change the world! School teachers, coaches, Pastors, Sunday School instructors, youth group leaders, camp counselors, PARENTS, and any type of leader over people can take our story and help inspire the people they are in charge of to do great things!

3. Recruit a runner! Know someone who likes running, basketball, or both? Could they be passionate about acting against global poverty? Have them check out our WANT TO DRIBBLE A RACE? page!

4. Bring Occh into your school, church, or camp to share the vision through his Create the Crossover presentation! For more information, visit CreatetheCrossover.com and email Dan Occhiogrosso at  occh@ballforlives.com

5. For believers in Jesus Christ, please use what we are doing to share the good news of His love for us! One of the first questions we are asked when we tell people about dribbling miles on end is: “WHY?” We invite you to use our story to share our motivation with the people in your life who don’t know Jesus. He is Why We Dribble the World!

Once you get involved spreading the word ABOUT our runners, it’s time for you to directly HELP OUR RUNNERS complete their task!

You can support our runners in 4 specific ways:

1. Pray for our runners. After each update you receive from Dribble the World, take the time to pray for the specific people involved and ask God to do great things in their lives.

2. Leave comments on their DribbletheWorld.com web-post. Imagine one of our runners seeing dozens of comments from people around the world encouraging them to achieve their goal. Each time you read about one of our events on our site, leave a comment to the participants and inspire them to keep going!

3. Go and cheer on a runner on race day! Imagine what it would mean to a runner if you and your friends came out to support them personally. I know that Johnny and Deanna really helped me and Ron at the New York City Marathon! If you are in the NYC area, this opportunity comes several times a year. Contact Us and find out if a Dribble the World event is coming your way!

4. Donate to a runner’s cause. When someone runs for Dribble the World they pick a cause dealing with global poverty and injustice that they are passionate about. Few things motivate a runner more than knowing their effort is accomplishing Dribble the World’s goal: to raise awareness and funds for people in poverty around the globe. You can donate on the right side of this web-page!

What’s amazing about supporting our runners is just how inspired you can become in the process. You might even find yourself considering to DRIBBLE A RACE

You dribbling a race could change lives around the world in several specific ways:

1. When you sign up with Dribble the World you inspire the people in your life and community by doing something big! As believers in Jesus Christ, dribbling miles on end for people in need gives us a perfect opportunity to tell people about exactly what motivates us to Dribble the World: the cross of Jesus Christ!

2. The awareness and funds you raise for people who are suffering will change the lives of people on another side of the globe! As Christians, we know this pleases the heart of God beyond what we can phathom: “And whoever gives one of these little ones even a cup of cold water because he is a disciple, truly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.” (Mattnew 10:42 esv)

3. The journey of entering what God is doing to save the lives of those He loves will change YOU. God’s goal in each of our lives is that we would be  “conformed to the image of His Son.” We pray that God would use Dribble the World to help make each of our runners more like Jesus.

4. You dribbling a race will spread our movement to so many new people that would have never heard of Dribble the World! Each runner brings brand new donors, supporters, and even sometimes runners! I have seen many times one person’s race inspire another person to do the same. Then the first 3 things mentioned repeat all over again!
