Kicking off now until July, 31st , 2011 Urban Farming™ presents: the Urban Farming Global Games™. With a bevy of NFL players and their supporters donating for a one-of- a-kind cause to raise money for Urban Farming™, the NFL players series is the first round of the Urban Farming Global Games™. “The NFL Players are an important part of the Urban Farming™ Mission to End Hunger in Our Generation because they touch so many people worldwide and are respected by all ages! Their support and contribution to people in need is very valuable!” remarks Prince protégé, recording artist and founder of Urban Farming™, Taja Sevelle.
The Urban Farming Global Games™ will serve a unique purpose by educating the social community via networks Facebook™ and Twitter™ about hunger facts and how their donation can foster the growing community of the Urban Farming Food Empowerment Zones™. An additional emblematic part of this program is the Urban Farming Play it Forward Now™ feature, in which a portion of the funds raised will be generously donated to each of the player’s charity of choice.
