The Godding Family
The Godding Family
Thanks to the generosity of Swire Coca-Cola and the Seattle FIFA World Cup 2026 Local Organizing Committee (SeattleFWC26), Boys & Girls Clubs in Washington received four tickets to a FIFA World Cup match.
We selected the Godding family to receive this opportunity because of their strong connection to our Club and their enthusiasm for sports. The children are active participants in our programs and leagues, and their family has remained engaged with the Club through a significant period of transition. Throughout it all, their father and grandmother have worked together to ensure the children continue to have opportunities to stay involved, build friendships, and enjoy the sports they love.
