Gyasi Zardes' gooooooaaaaaaaalllllll!
Zardes tallied a nice strike in the Galaxy's 2-2 draw in Chicago on Wednesday night and you know what that means! The LA Galaxy and Herbalife will be donating $2,000 towards laptops for A Place Called Home's college-bound students and you can get involved as well.

"Every young person deserves the opportunity for an education. I’m committed to using my platform as a professional soccer player to making sure our youth in need receive that opportunity," Zardes said. "That’s why, in partnership with Herbalife and the LA Galaxy, I’m dedicating my performance this season to supporting A Place Called Home’s Shaheen Scholarship Program. And I’m challenging all Galaxy fans to join me!"
In addition to a donation for every time Zardes scores, Herbalife and the LA Galaxy will also donate $500 to APCH, up to $25,000 total for every assist made by the Hawthorne native.
At the end of the season, APCH children will be eligible to meet Gyasi or participate in a clinic with him.
Visit www.pledgeit.org/gyasi to pledge your support for the program and help the LA Galaxy and Herbalife reach their goal of $25,000. Every dollar helps, and will aid A Place Called Home’s Shaheen Scholars as they head to college.
