Every day, aid packages are being delivered, in third world countries and disaster zones, to people in need. The packages contain the necessities for survival.
Unplug design, a Korean design firm, thought something more than just necessities would be nice for the children, so they came up with a way the kids can use the packaging to make balls.
Paper balls may not sound very exiting, but...

Aid boxes are delivered everyday to third world countries. So Unplug designed a pattern that could be adapted to different shaped aid boxes so once the box is empty of supplies it could be made into a football! A game of football in these areas is often a way for kids to escape their reality of poverty, war and famine. They make their own balls from palm leaves, rope or plastic bags filled with dirt, so Unplugs design certainly makes for a more comfortable kick, especially when bare feet are involved!

And it doesn't cost anybody anything...win/win.
