Right To Play, a world leader in using sport for child development and peace, in partnership with MLS W.O.R.K.S., Major League Soccer's first league-wide community outreach initiative, announced today at the 2007 Sierra Mist MLS All-Star Game that 20 MLS soccer stars from around the league have joined Right To Play as Athlete Ambassadors to raise awareness and funds to help children in the world's most disadvantaged places.
The announcement and official launch of the Right To Play/MLS W.O.R.K.S. partnership will take place at the 2007 Sierra Mist MLS All-Star Game between the MLS All-Stars and Celtic FC at Dick's Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City, Colo. (Live on ESPN2 and Galavision, 9:00 p.m. ET).
